What is an Infant Settlement Trust?

An Infant Settlement Trust is generally a ‘bare trust’ which is defined as a legal arrangement where the trustees hold and manage a personal injury award on behalf of the beneficiary.

How can Adroit help?

We work alongside solicitors to guide families through the process of setting up a trust when a child is due to receive personal injury compensation. We assess the child’s financial needs before and after age 18, explain trust options clearly, and recommend suitable solutions.

Our team prepares detailed reports and witness statements to support court approval, offering objective analysis and expert opinion. We can also attend approval hearings and, once approved, help families establish the trust and manage the funds effectively.
