The lawyer further explained her point, stating that the trust must be done before marriage.

She said:

“The only exception to this could be Timing. If you run to "the trust" during your time of divorce, it will not be honored , it becomes a malicious step. If the trust was established BEFORE the marriage, it is more likely to be viewed as separate property. If it was created during the marriage and divorce period, it may be subject to division.”

As many asked her about how the trust can be established before having children, the lawyer added:

“Trust must only be for children. No 2. Trust can be done without carrying the name of any child . 3. Trust can have more than one beneficiary and terms. It can be revoked and irrevocable.
“I can also say I want this Trust Nominee to hold my property for any child I have in future until they're 18. If, paradventure I bear no child, my property should be given to charities and part of it to my brother. When that is the case, it doesn't concern whatever the woman comes up with tomorrow.”
