Protect the assets from a lengthy probate process in the unfortunate event of my demise and ensure that my assets are administered in a structured manner as per my wishes
A Trust guarantees protection over your assets because trusts are not subjected to the probate process (legal process to determine if it is valid or not). All a probate court does is to distribute any assets you own under a Trust. This means that your wish as to how your assets will be managed for the benefit of your family and dependents will always prevail thereby saving your dependants succession wars.
The assets in a trust are administered as per your wishes, e.g for education, upkeep or medical purposes. Any instruction outside the scope as described in your trust deed would be contravening your (the founder) wishes contained in the maiden instruction on formation and operation of the trust.
