Mutual Wills are very similar to Mirror Wills. However, a small difference is that both parties agree that the Wills cannot be cancelled, even if one of them dies. Documents should be present as evidence that the Wills are mutual.
The inflexibility of mutual wills is a key disadvantage, making them less ideal for those anticipating docHub life changes. Consulting an estate planning attorney is recommended due to the legal complexities involved.
The agreement between the parties is an essential factor of a Mutual Will wherein neither of them can revoke their Will without taking prior consent of each other. This agreement can be in writing or in oral. In case of an oral agreement, it needs to be proved that such an agreement has taken place between the parties.
Mirror wills, also known as a reciprocal wills, are wills that have similar provisions of disposition between spouses. Mutual wills, meanwhile, are wills that include a binding agreement that the testators will not change their wills after the death of their spouse. Not all mirror wills are mutual wills.
This is known as a Mirror Will, simply because one Will is a mirror of the other. If you make a Mirror Will leaving everything to your partner, spouse, civil partner and then to the children, you are relying on that person to respect you wishes and not to change their Will.
