In short, no. You can create a joint Living Trust with a spouse, but you will both need your own separate Wills (even if you have a Trust).
Your Will designates someone to handle your estate, distributes your property – both real property and tangible personal property (like jewelry) – and, in the case of parents, designates a guardian for your children.
If you have children, we do recommend completing the estate planning process with your spouse to make sure you are both on the same page regarding guardian choices and testamentary trust provisions (if you choose the Deluxe Plan).
