Module 5: Trusts in Practice
The earlier modules covered what a trust is and what a trustee owes. This module looks at how trusts are actually used and where they run into limits — trusts as substitutes for wills, trusts that fail for want of funding, protection from creditors, powers that let someone else choose who takes, and the old rule that stops a settlor from controlling property forever. Every section below is pre-written and deterministic; nothing is AI-generated.
