If the trustee breached fiduciary duties and stole from the trust, legal action can be taken against the trustee.

You are a beneficiary of a life insurance policy which is in an irrevocable trust your step mother left instructions that you are not to receive any money from it can she do that?

Your step mother can only change the beneficiary on the life insurance policy if she is the owner of the policy or if she is the trustee of the trust. If she's the trustee then she would need to have the authority to make changes on the insurance policy set forth in the trust document. Otherwise, she cannot make changes in the policy. You haven't provided enough information for a more detailed answer such as who owns the policy and where your step mother "left" those instructions or how she is involved at all.

Does a trustee need permission of beneficiaries to borrow money from the trust?

The trustee cannot borrow money from the trust unless that power is specifically included in the provisions of the trust. A trustee has only the power set forth in the document that created the trust. A trustee is subject to the state laws that govern fiduciaries. Self-dealing by a fiduciary is a serious offense that should be reported to the authorities. The beneficiaries should bring the matter before a judge and ask that the trustee be replaced and the funds restored immediately. Alternatively, if it is a friendly transaction the parties should consult with an attorney (preferably the attorney who drafted the trust) who can review the situation and draft the appropriate documents if the transaction can be allowed.

If you can prove that the named beneficiary doesn't have the interest of child at heart. It is worth a try. The correct answer is NO. A life insurance policy is a contract and the contract will uphold in court. The only person who can change the benficiary is the owner or possibly the current trustee if they no longer wished to be trustee. <---Period!
