That question is worded to lead me to assume that there is a trust in place. The answer then is No. Also assuming two parents, one dies and there is a child of the two. The trust is for the benefit of the child and the trustee must only utilize the money in the child's best interest. This is set up so the owner (prior) of the life insurance policy could see to it that the proceeds of said policy are used only in the child's best interest. For instance, perhaps the child's mother would buy a life policy on herself and the husband is a total bum and would drink and gamble the money away rather than sending his child to college so she would set up the trust in order that her wishes can be controlled beyond the grave. Perhaps her parent is the trustee for the child's money because she knows her Mom or Dad can be trusted but the Bum of a husband can not. 4lifeguild.com

Can the surviving parent of a child challenge a life insurance policy that names someone else as trustee of their child's life insurance money?

== == Probably not. Maybe there is a reason someone else was named as trustee I think you can challenge it in court. 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!
