About the Webinar

As the High Court made clear in Stanford, an essential part of any family property matter is to identify the legal and equitable interests of the parties in any property. However, determining the size of the asset pool can be difficult, particularly where parties have interests in complex company and trust arrangements. This session covers:

  • Court consideration of equitable interests in property
  • Alter egos and other controlling interests in trusts and companies:
    • Distinction between control and ownership
    • De jure control
    • De facto control
    • Sham trusts
  • Identifying business interests – either owned personally, or through any form of corporate entity, trust or partnership structure
  • Issues with digital assets:
    • Cryptocurrencies
    • Assets held in the Cloud
    • Instagram and other social media accounts
