Yes. You and your spouse/civil partner can make separate Wills. We offer both Single Will and Mirror Wills options. The Mirror Wills service is suitable for couples (married, civil partners or living together) who have very similar wishes on how their assets should be distributed. The two Wills will be mirror images of each other.
