A: You need to call a lawyer. APS thinks you had her get the money for your benefit. They might try and remove her from your care and send charges to a prosecutor. I suggest you call a local criminal law attorney and meet with them. This need to be done before you and or mom meet with them. Also, follow up with her Dr and get the record to show she is doing better. You need to protect yourself.
A: You need to contact and consult a criminal defense attorney now so that you are protected. If you proceed forward without representation you may give information you shouldn't. Sound like this should be figured out and you should be fine. Hire an experienced criminal defense attorney now.
