Yes, in most cases. A trust only controls the assets that have been placed in it. A will, usually called a pour-over will, acts as a safety net for anything left out, and it is where you name guardians for minor children. Together, the two documents help make sure nothing falls through the cracks.
Many people set up a trust and forget to move every asset into it. A new account, a vehicle, or property received after the trust was signed may end up outside it. A pour-over will directs those assets into your trust at death, although property that passes through the will may still have to go through probate first. Wills also let you nominate guardians for minor children, something a trust cannot do on its own. A short review of how your assets are titled helps keep the trust and the will working together.
