Mirror Wills vs Mutual Wills - What's the Difference?
Mirror Wills are simple and flexible, allowing couples to leave everything to each other, then to children—but they can be changed after one partner dies. Mutual Wills are legally binding but too rigid for most families. For couples worried about sideways disinheritance or care fees, a Protective Property Trust in a Mirror Will offers the best of both worlds—protecting your loved ones while giving your partner security and flexibility.
