Trusts providing life interests and reversions can either arise through an intestacy or by direction in a will. They don’t always meet the requirements of either the life tenant or those with a reversionary interest. Provided all agree, the Trust can be broken and the assets distributed amongst the interested parties.
We are often called on to advise a fair split of value between the parties and have significant experience of these types of calculation.
