Who is Responsible for Proving Hidden Assets in a Trust?

When assets are hidden within a trust during divorce, who must prove this manipulation? At Burger Huyser Attorneys, we emphasise that this responsibility falls squarely on the shoulders of the individual asserting that trust assets should factor into the division of the joint estate or accrual calculations. Identifying sham or alter ego trusts requires presenting compelling evidence of intentional misuse by a spouse to sway the court’s judgment.

Understanding the intricacies of your matrimonial property regime and how trusts can impact your financial standing in divorce proceedings is critical. Whether you’re establishing a trust, navigating trust registrations, or confronting a complex divorce involving hidden assets, our family law experts are ready to assist.
