OVERVIEW

Our trust lawyers advise on trusts, wills and probate with a view to asset protection, inter-generational wealth transfer, ring-fencing of assets (whether in Hong Kong or abroad) from creditors, and the minimization of loss of wealth through potential conflicts or disputes among family members or taxation.

Where appropriate, our practice works in conjunction with our other practice areas in corporate finance, mergers and acquisitions, private equity and hedge funds to facilitate the making of investments through trusts and to provide an overall wealth management structure.
