The other situation in which assets can be transferred out of an irrevocable trust is when you and any other beneficiaries get together, agree that assets need to be transferred out, then petition a court to do so. Depending on the documents of your trust, the trustee might need to be involved, as well.
The trustee is the person (or people) who holds legal title to the property that is in the trust. The trustee's job is to manage the property in the trust for the benefit of the beneficiaries in the way the settlor has asked.
The trustee must prepare a new deed to transfer the property from the trust to the beneficiary. This deed must be properly drafted and include all necessary information, such as the legal description of the property and the names of the trustee and beneficiary.
