Legal Question in Elder Law in Massachusetts

Abuse of a JTWROS account

My cousin's husband was named by my 95 year old grandmother to oversee her account ... he spent her money on a failed business, without any of us knowing. He did not break any laws, we gather, but we would like to attempt to sue him for return of the +$300K. Any possibility?
