How do I get roughly $14k that I received from friends and family in the form of checks and cash at the time of my Bar Mitzvah now that I’m an adult?
I understand that as a minor they have the right to withhold it until I am an adult. I am an adult now (18years old) with financial trouble. The 14k was out into a CD when I received it. Is there any way I can retrieve the money? I’m not sure of whose name it is in but I could use the money.. like yesterday. I am from Arizona if that makes a difference.

Hello. Your post lacks certain details that need to be known in order to respond appropriately. For instance, you talk about a 'they', but it is unknown who that is. I urge you to seek private attorney counsel.
Some attorneys, myself included, will confer for free, at no charge. Then, if legal work is performed, some attorneys, myself included, will provide a reduced fee for need. All the best.
