Can money be withdrawn from an irrevocable trust?

Generally, money cannot be withdrawn from an irrevocable trust by the grantor or beneficiaries unless specific provisions allow for it. The assets placed in an irrevocable trust are meant to be managed according to the terms of the trust document, often for the benefit of the beneficiaries over time. However, trustees may have the discretion to distribute funds to beneficiaries based on the trust's guidelines. It's essential to consult the trust document and possibly a legal advisor for specific circumstances.
