Has anyone had any experience reporting financial abuse to Adult Protective Services? If so, please share the outcome.

So, the common law husband that we had to rescue my MIL from, lied about money and accounts. We found out about it when we applied for her to get long term care. Here was all this money in joint accounts. Her monthly retirement amount is 2-3 times what his is. We tried to talk to him about it - but he flew into a rage. So we turned everything over to APS and have been waiting for the last two months. (APS said they won't give updates that we will be notified when it is all finished.) But we are not even sure what "all finished" means!
Just curious if anyone else has had any experience and can shed light on what we should be expecting!! THANK YOU IN ADVANCE. Blessings to all.

I've had APS out here several times since I moved here almost 3 years ago they don't seem to care that this woman is taking advantage of my father financially and that she has manipulated him she has trauma bonded with him she's done terrible things that has made my father very ashamed and he won't admit it but you can tell APS was not helpful when it came to this woman that has taken advantage of my father for years had her kids living here they were on drugs many things are missing and my dad was overpaying her a lot of money and still thinks he owes her $250,000 in the aps says there's nothing I could do about that so I'm contacting me a lawyer this woman needs to stop they won't even investigate her why I do not know I have pictures of what the house look like when I tell them I have evidence of her connecting fraud. Everything takes time and I know that it's all will come out in the wash and she will be eventually prosecuted but not from the help with APS they did not help

I think you would have better success with a really good attorney, as JoAnn said.

Never had this problem but I think I would have seen a lawyer. The assets can be split if the accts are shared. The lawyer can demand exposure of all finances. If APS has done nothing in 2 months they probably won't.

She would have been notified that they closed the investigation if they weren't pursuing it.
