Resolving Disputes Through Legal Expertise

Our Trusts section has significant experience in offshore territories such as Jersey and the British Virgin Islands (BVI). LIL Legal maintains relationships with lawyers and Trust companies outside the UK jurisdiction.

How We Work

It is important that non-hostile negotiation with Trust companies is maintained throughout any proceeding as undue hostility can upset finely balanced apple carts and precarious financial situations. Because of our reputation as intelligent and seasoned negotiators we are often able to extricate individuals from precarious matters where large amounts of money are held by Trust companies.

Facilitating and overseeing transfers of assets

This is extremely complex and needs expert assistance. We are experienced in using reputable agents and finance companies to ensure that assets are transferred legally and correctly from Trust companies to beneficiaries.

Proceedings

If there is litigation of any nature, we are able to instruct and support law firms appointed in the relevant jurisdiction.

Mitigating Costs

Unlike the UK, in many offshore jurisdictions there are no such things as cost management hearings. We work with seasoned costs lawyers in the UK and outside jurisdictions in all matters of costs that are so easily racked up in trust disputes. Our eye is always firmly on the ball when assessing costs and negotiating with Trust company lawyers.
