Can life estate be reversed when sold house to daughter the attorney gave mother-in-law a life estate written on the new deed without having the agreement to the life estate signed by mother-in-law?

Your question is extremely hard to follow. Generally a life estate cannot be "reversed". The attorney isn't the one who grants a life estate. The owner of the property grants it in the deed. If the mother-in-law owned the property and conveyed it reserving a life estate for herself it can't be reversed. Generally, the recipient of a life estate doesn't sign the deed "in agreement". For example, Sally can grant her property to Sheila for life and the fee to Tom and Jerry upon Sheila's death. Sheila wouldn't be required to sign that deed. A life estate isn't considered an agreement. You should discuss the life estate with an attorney to determine the rights and obligation of both parties.

You need to check with your county's Registrar of Deeds to determine for certain if your mother IS the only person named on the deed. If the step-father is on the deed, the property will pass as the deed was written and filed. If the property is in the mother's name alone and there is a will in effect, the property will be allocated as stated in the will. If no will is in effect, the laws of intestacy will apply and the lawful spouse will be the primary inheritor, with each of the remaining blood relatives getting a percentage of the estate.
