My grandmother passed away and my mother gave my sister power if atty can she override the trust and sell the property
A: The trust document would control what happens to the property - easy answer here is to ask the successor trustee to speak with the attorney that drafted the trust.
A: Normally a revocable trust becomes irrevocable when the settlor dies. You really need to consult with a Florida trust attorney to have the trust reviewed.
