*Treatment of Trusts on Divorce: Analysis of HO v TL [2023]*   HO v TL: Lessons for Trusts Cases, an article by FLiP Senior Associate Grace Lawrence who is a member of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners, was first published in HNW Divorce ‘Entrusting the Future to the Next Generation’ magazine (ThoughtLeaders4 HNW Divorce • JUNE 2024) and is reproduced via the link below, by kind permission.
