Q: grandfather was part of the McDonnell Douglas asbestos settlement I believe my sister is receiving and cashing my funds?
Dutch Powers from Grafton, IL was my grandfather, he was part of the asbestos settlement listed above. my sister contacted me about a received check a few years ago and I believe she has been depositing these checks directed to me for her own benefit. I am looking for help to find the truth. she told me they come "few and far between" and refused to send me the original check and instead provided one from her personal account. I am led to believe the checks have been hidden from me for more than 9 years. could someone please direct me in a direction that may be helpful?
A: Go though the settlement case, research it and call them. If u would like for me to do if for u, I would be happy to.
