Estate planning in our view can involve considerations of elder abuse, mental capacity, considerations of how asset should be held and financed, complex aspects of various trusts and trustee powers, powers of attorney, life estates and family law considerations overlaid with taxation and succession issues.
Not only have we dealt with the above diverse areas of the law to bring them all together in wealth and asset transfer, but we have done so at times with individuals work residences in multiple countries and assets across multiple jurisdictions.
