Why Choose de Groots Guardian Services?
We ensure that every beneficiary receives the support they need. Here’s why individuals and families trust us:
Expertise & Experience
Our team of highly qualified legal and financial professionals delivers comprehensive trust management services. Backed by years of experience in estate law and wealth preservation, we ensure precise administration and robust asset protection tailored to your trust’s needs.
Personalised Beneficiary Engagement
Unlike corporate trustees operating remotely, we meet beneficiaries face-to-face, conduct home visits and engage with families to understand their evolving needs. This direct approach ensures personalised support and prompt responses to changing circumstances.
Transparent Fee Structure
We believe in fairness. Unlike many corporate trustees charging percentage-based fees, we operate on standard professional rates, ensuring trust assets are maximised for beneficiaries. Our transparent fee structure eliminates hidden costs, allowing more value to be retained for your trust.
Commitment to Well-being
Beyond managing finances, we ensure beneficiaries receive personalised support for lifestyle, medical, and emotional needs. Our services enhance quality of life through close coordination with care providers and community support, ensuring comprehensive well-being.
Our Trustee Services
We provide comprehensive trust administration, acting as an independent trustee or working alongside family-appointed trustees to ensure seamless management.
Acting as Trustee or Co-Trustee
We serve as a sole trustee or co-trustee alongside family members. Our approach guarantees professional, impartial, and legally compliant trust administration. Our role is to protect assets, manage distributions, and uphold trust terms to benefit all beneficiaries.
Trust Management & Beneficiary Support
We maintain close relationships with beneficiaries through regular contact and home visits to ensure their evolving needs are met. We work collaboratively with support organisations, healthcare professionals, and family members to deliver coordinated care. Our focus on well-being and lifestyle support helps beneficiaries access programmes, services, and activities that enrich their lives.
Financial Oversight & Asset Protection
We implement sound investment strategies to preserve wealth and secure long-term financial stability for trust assets. Trust funds are managed responsibly through careful budgeting and expense management, ensuring beneficiaries’ financial futures remain secure. We also oversee day-to-day obligations, including living expenses, medical costs, and other essential needs, providing comprehensive financial oversight and asset protection.
Legal Administration & Compliance
de Groots Guardian Services manages all trust obligations, reporting, and tax filings with precision. We work closely with our experienced wills and estate lawyers to deliver clear legal oversight and ensure strict compliance with current regulations. This collaboration safeguards trust assets and upholds beneficiary interests through transparent and reliable administration.
Types of Trusts We Manage
We specialise in administering various types of trusts, ensuring that they are structured to provide maximum benefit to beneficiaries.
Testamentary Trusts
A testamentary trust is created under a will and activated upon the settlor’s passing. It safeguards assets and delivers long-term financial security to beneficiaries. Ideal for structured inheritance planning, this trust provides clear asset protection and supports effective wealth distribution.
Special Needs Trusts (Disability Trusts)
Special Needs Trusts secure long-term financial stability for individuals with disabilities. We coordinate with care providers, government support services, and healthcare professionals to deliver tailored assistance, ensuring each beneficiary receives support that meets their specific needs.
Family Trusts
Family Trusts protect family wealth and ensure structured income distribution. They help high-net-worth individuals manage finances efficiently while preserving assets for future generations. By establishing a family trust, you secure a clear framework for wealth management and legacy planning, safeguarding your assets and ensuring income is allocated according to your intentions.
How Our Fees Work
Unlike many corporate trustees that charge a percentage of trust assets, we believe in transparent and fair pricing. We do not take a cut from your trust funds, ensuring that every dollar is preserved for beneficiaries. Our legal services are billed at prevailing professional rates, providing affordability without compromising quality. With clear fee outlines and no hidden costs or excessive trustee remuneration, our pricing model supports effective trust administration and long-term asset protection.
