There are several reasons to have a will or a trust.
Most importantly, having a will or a trust allows you to decide who will receive your property rather than leaving that choice to state law.
Having a will allows you to choose your personal representative (otherwise known as an executor under your Last Will & Testament).
Without a will, the court could appoint someone as executor other than a person you would have preferred.
Having a Trust allows you to avoid a probate altogether provided your trust is validly created and funded properly.

A will is a written instrument by which you provide for the disposition of your property after your death.
In Oklahoma, if you are of sound mind and eighteen years of age or older, you may dispose of your property by will.
May I dispose of my property as I wish with a will or trust?
Under Oklahoma law, a married person may not completely exclude the surviving spouse.
Oklahoma law allows the spouse to take a certain portion of the estate despite the will.
This is known as a spouse taking his or her 'forced share'.

A revocable trust or living trust is a written document providing for the management of your property which becomes effective while you are living, unlike a Last Will & Testament which takes effect after your death.
A trust is set up for a trustee to manage your property for your benefit during your lifetime or in the event of your incapacity.
Ordinarily, you serve as the sole trustee until you die or become incapacitated.
After your death, the trust document will provide for your successor trustee to distribute any remaining property to those persons or beneficiaries you have chosen or provide for the continued management of your property by that successor trustee for many years, with the ultimate distribution as you direct.
