Joint will
One document. Two signatures.
A single legal document signed by two people - often spouses - covering both estates in one place. Less common today because they are harder to change once one person dies, but right for some couples.

After you sign
Your will is only the start.
Every Trusted Hands will is wired into the same legacy system: executors notified automatically, documents stored alongside the will, and a secure portal that unlocks for your executors when the time comes.
1. You choose your executor(s)
Appoint up to four executors as you build your will, plus named substitutes in case your first choice can't act. Friend, family member or professional - your call.
2. They're emailed automatically
The moment you finalise your will, each executor receives a calm, clear email explaining they've been appointed and what happens next. They see no documents while you're alive.
3. Family Vault stays with you
Add insurance policies, deeds, identity papers, financial accounts, funeral wishes and letters of wishes to your encrypted vault. You control what's shareable and what stays private.
4. Vault unlocks when the time comes
After a death is confirmed, your executor portal unlocks. They find the will, the Executor Pack, a live checklist and the documents you chose to share - all in one place. No drawer-rifling.

Build will + LPA togetherHow a joint will is different
Unlike mirror wills (which are two separate documents), a joint will is one document, signed by both of you in front of two witnesses.
When it makes sense
A joint will can be appropriate when both partners are in lockstep about how the combined estate should pass. They are harder to revoke or change than mirror wills, so make sure you both want this level of permanence before starting.

Frequently asked
Can a joint will be changed after one of us dies? It can be, but only by the survivor and only with care - this is one of the reasons mirror or mutual wills are often the better choice. The Will Wizard can help you decide which suits.
Do we both need to be present at signing? Yes - both signatures must go on the same document, witnessed by two independent adults at the same time.
