A joint will, often used by married couples, states that when one spouse dies, the surviving spouse inherits everything, and when the second spouse dies, all assets go to their children. Once one spouse dies, the other spouse is locked into the terms of the joint will, often with unintended or inflexible results.
If the common intention is expressed in one instrument, the will may be called a joint will, and if the testators have executed two separate instrument to manifest their common intention, the will may be called a mutual will.
The Cons of a Joint Will Lack of Flexibility. The most docHub drawback of a joint will is its lack of flexibility. Potential for Disputes Among Heirs. Inability to Account for Life Changes. Limited Applicability in Some Jurisdictions. Legal Challenges and Difficulties.
Cons of Mutual Wills Generally, mutual wills can cost more to prepare, are inflexible, and more complex to prepare than non-mutual wills. If beneficiaries are seeking to establish an agreement that the will-makers intended for their wills to be mutual, they will bear a heavy burden of proof.
Mutual wills are based on the agreement of both partners that the surviving partner wont change their will after the other dies.
