Legal Question in Personal Injury in Florida

When my son was 11 years old and he was a passenger in a car accident. He was injured in the accident that was the fault of another driver. Needless to say there was a law suit that was settled out of court and the money for my son was put into a trust fund. My son resides w his father tho we have joint custody. At that time, my ex-husband was having issues so i asked that the trust fund be fixed to where i had to also agree before money was removed. This was done and the courts assigned a guardian at litem to oversee the account. My son is now 16 years old and wants a car....My ex called about the trust to see if they would be able to use funds from the account to purchase a vehicle for our son, only to find out that there is under $10k of the original $33k left in the account. I have tried to contact the attorney multiple times and have left messages and she has not returned my call. I want to know what i can do if anything about them taking the money from that trust fund. Thats over 10k that has been removed from his trust fund in less than 5 years. How can this happen? At this rate by the time my son is 18 he will not have a dime of the money that was due to him for pain and suffering that he endured from a very serious car accident.
