Their options are many. Basically, in Florida as in other states, the law is that if you do not pay the mortgage, the bank can foreclose. Since the mortgage was in the father's name, I doubt that there will be a modification, and they should probably seek other financing to pay of the mortgage.

First of all, you are free to contact any lawyer you like to discuss your trust and other affairs. You have no obligation to use the lawyer who drafted your trust, and I would encourage you to look for someone in whom you have a great deal of confidence. If you created the trust, and named yourself as trustee, I'd be surprised if the trust could not be modified. Your new trust lawyer will be able to definitely comment on that once he or she has reviewed the trust document. I am sure there are a number of trust lawyers in your area, as well as a number here on LawQA, who would be happy to assist you.
