Checking account... mom gave it up but is still writing checks and due to Covid I can't get the checks.
Recently we had a window visit with my mom. It was two of my sister's and me. It was the first time seeing her since February. She was talking about dying (another post!) But also said she was giving up her checking account. She physically handed us the checks. I have the main account (which pays big bills, taxes etc) as her trustee. She has a small account that allowed her some freedom. One day ago I noticed a small check written three days after she gave us checks. Then my sister said Mom had written her a check for $500 when she really meant to write it for $50. Mom obviously didn't give us all her checks and doesn't remember saying she was giving them up. I have my two sisters as witness as well as the person from AL who gave us the checks.
How do I get the checks from Mom when I can't get into AL to get them? What is the best way to deal with this?
