"I have been assisting families manage their wealth across the generations in tax effective and asset protected structures since 2005.  I have observed there is a sense of relief and peace of mind knowing that families will be fairly looked after through their estate. We have saved many families the unnecessary costs of poorly structured affairs. Of greatest value is the opportunity to engage in authentic communication with a family around their wishes, which is indisputably the best method to prevent disputes." - Dene Kilpatrick
