Mutual Wills are Wills usually made between two persons - often spouses or partners. Mutual Wills are done simultaneously and are usually accompanied with a binding contract which both parties execute, agreeing to not change or revoke their Wills, without the express permission of the other party.
A joint will can be executed with each other or with the third person in accordance with a proper agreement or contract in order to transfer or dispose of the property. A joint will can be made with another person through an agreement but it cannot be revoked by one testator.
The purpose of a mutual will is to grant the survivor of the two the property contained in the wills, and then to specified individuals after the death of the survivor. Further, mutual wills can contain clauses that they are not revocable without the consent of both parties.

Mutual Wills are wills made by spouses or partners at the same time, together with a contract to which they are both parties. In the contract the spouses (or partners) each agree to be legally bound not to change their respective wills without each other's consent.

The requirements for a valid Will are different for each type of Will.
