Martin Hawes — Managing Your Family Trust
Shoal Bay Press 2003 Paperback, 95pp. This book is for people who have already set up a family trust. Many people put a trust in place and then think that they are now set up for life. But not so. One of the problems is that the basic premise of a trust, that the assets in it no longer belong to you, is often forgotten or ignored by people who continue to behave as 'the owner' of the assets. In this book Martin Hawes points out that trusts involve a degree of active management, particularly if there is any danger of their validity being challenged. He suggests reasons why your trust might be attacked and by whom, and then outlines the means of ensuring that it is protected from such attacks. (ISBN: 9781877251214). Very Good.
