What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
California
So my mom left accounts for my brother, sister and I with about $10,000 in each. They only had her name on the account so when she passes away my dad could not access them when I turned 18 he asked to put his name on the account so he could help it make more money by moving things around.He explained to me that it was my college money and to be used for school only and also led me to believe that he couldn't withdraw any of the money unless it was for my schooling. I allow him to add his name and then before I turn 21 and can access the account he simply empties it and denies me any of the money. He also did this to my brother, although he had no idea what he had signed over or anything about the account, yet my dad emptied his account and my younger sisters, although I think she was so young he did not need her consent. Is there anything I could do here? I know legally I signed him onto the account but I was just hoping there was some way I could fight this.
