By its very nature, a revocable trust can generally be revoked, amended, and modified by the grantor (aka settlor, trust or). This, so long as the grantor is alive and not incapacitated. And provided the trust instrument permits the grantor to make such changes.
If you made a trust with your spouse or partner, then while both of you are alive, you both must agree to amend any provision of the trust document -- for example, to change a beneficiary, a successor trustee or the property management set up for a young beneficiary.
Modifying an Irrevocable Trust under California Law Under Probate Code §15404(a) any trust may be modified or terminated by the written consent of the settlor and all beneficiaries without court approval of the modification or termination.
?A Restatement? is also an amendment, but of the whole trust instrument, not just of the handpicked parts of the trust, like in the ?Amendment? described above. So a Restatement would say ?I hereby take my entire trust named TRUST dated DATE and replace it with this whole new trust named TRUST dated TODAY'S DATE.?
It's important to know what you want to change and where in your trust document this information lives (such as the article number you're amending). Fill out the amendment form. Complete the entire form. It's important to be clear and detailed in describing your changes.
