You must always look to the language in the trust document. A well drafted trust will spell out instructions for every issue that affects the trust estate. A trust doesn't become "voided". The property that was transferred to the trust must be transferred out by the trustee in order to pass title to the property. This issue should have been resolved at the time of the divorce. You should seek the advice of the attorney who represented you at that time.
