Trusts and Estates Law

Trusts and Estates Law governs the management and distribution of a person’s property and assets during their lifetime and after death. It involves legal processes for creating trusts—arrangements where one party holds property for the benefit of another—and for settling estates, which includes handling wills and the distribution of assets to heirs and beneficiaries. This area of law ensures that individuals' wishes regarding their property are honored, protects the rights of heirs, and provides legal frameworks to resolve disputes. Overall, it plays a vital role in financial and estate planning to secure legacies for future generations.
