Our specialist team are experts in proactively advising trustees on all management and administration issues.
At Moore Barlow, our team are vastly experienced in helping with all aspects of trust administration, accounting and tax compliance in an efficient and cost-effective manner; ensuring that as trustees you can meet your fiduciary obligations.
Working with trustees, we can assist in advising on their duties and understand the time and commitment it takes to manage a trust well. Failure to do so could expose the trustees to claims from the beneficiaries.
Many trusts require meticulous administration and the keeping of detailed records. The team help to relieve the burden of potentially time-consuming and complicated trust management, ultimately reducing the risk of it going wrong for the trustees and their family.
We offer a bespoke service, liaising directly with trustees, beneficiaries, accountants, investment managers and HMRC.
