What is the difference between a will and a trust?

Wills and trusts have a lot of overlap, but also a lot of differences. Both are ways to say who will receive your assets, how you’d like to be cared for should you need it, and who will take care of your dependents. Each has different ways of distributing those assets, as well as different advantages and disadvantages.

Wills are simpler documents that let you name guardians for kids and pets, designate where assets go, and specify final arrangements. Their simplicity offers reduced control over the distribution of assets and may still require going through a probate process.
A trust is more complex, and it provides greater control over when and how your assets are distributed. Trusts only apply to assets held in the trust, so you will need to transfer assets to the trust. Trusts are also often used to minimize or avoid probate entirely.
