An ANC with accrual means each spouse keeps their own pre-marital assets, but shares in growth during the marriage. Without accrual, everything stays entirely separate. We’ll walk you through what’s best for your circumstances.

No. It must be executed before the marriage and registered at the Deeds Office within three months. If you’ve missed the window, we can advise on a High Court application to change your matrimonial regime.

If you want to avoid being married in community of property by default, yes. An ANC determines how your assets are dealt with during the marriage and in the event of death or divorce.

Anyone over 18, but it’s critical that trustees understand their fiduciary duties. We provide trustee training and ongoing legal support to help you manage your trust properly.

A living trust is set up during your lifetime. A testamentary trust only comes into effect after your death, as per your will. We help you decide what’s best for your estate planning.
