A family trust is a 100% totally versatile legal document that protects the assets settled into it to protect against their loss to long term care home fees.
Almost any asset can be protected in a family trust. Most clients use it mainly to protect their home from care fees but it can also protect cash in a bank a/c, boats, caravans etc.
During your lifetime you have total use of any assets within the trust and you can add or subtract from them at any time at your discretion.
The wonderful thing about family trusts is that upon your eventual death, the assets within the trust do not pass through the lengthy process of probate; they go instantly to your loved ones thus saving many thousands of pounds in probate and legal fees.
