Hello and thank you for your question.

I would suggest that you go to the bank that was the maker of the check and cash the check directly there. If they won't because of the large amount, then open up an account, wait the 10 days and withdraw the money. If there is no lien from DA or Dept of Child Support services, you are ok. You would be able to say that you are using money to hire an attorney, pay for bills, and necessities of your life.
