How do wills work with married couples?

A joint will is a single document signed by two people (typically spouses) that serves as the will for both individuals. Mutual wills are separate documents created by two people with reciprocal terms, often with an agreement that the surviving person wont change their will after the first person dies.

What is the difference between a joint will and a mutual will?

No, in Montana, you do not need to notarize your will to make it legal. However, Montana allows you to make your will self-proving and youll need to go to a notary if you want to do that. A self-proving will speeds up probate because the court can accept the will without contacting the witnesses who signed it.
