Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Florida

I am a care taker for a senior of 90 years old. She and her son who lives in Delaware have a checking and savings account and they have added my name to it to assist her in bill paying and handling her banking for her. Also I am the trustee of her social security check. The check comes to me for her and I have the required checking account per S.S. guide lines. I went through a nasty divorce back in 1995 and through a couple of bankruptcies. The last more than ten years ago. Is this ladies money at risk with my name on her accounts?

Based on the information you have provided, her money is not going to be at risk just because you went through a nasty divorce and filed bankruptcy in the past. Do you have any creditors still out there who may come to try and collect something from you? And was your name actually added to the account or are you just an authorized user on their account. This is going to be a significant factor in determining the risks, if any. Please feel free to contact me at [email protected] for a free consultation.
