Trusts and Trustees 2007
This new edition of A Practitioner’s Guide to Trusts is a step-by-step guide to all the practical aspects of trust law. A time-saving, concise guide, providing all the information a practitioner needs to answer clients’ queries and concerns.
Part I deals with matters common to all trusts, from setting up a trust and how to administer it, to breach of trust and removal of trustees. Part II covers specific trusts in detail. For example, there are separate chapters on pensions, charities and life assurance. Taxation issues are dealt with throughout the book.
Written by an expert and highly respected author, this handbook provides comprehensive and practical information that is as useful to accountants and trust practitioners as it is to lawyers. It has been fully updated and revised to include the latest charities legislation and Finance Act 2008.
