So get a new lawyer quickly and consider filing complaints with the ethics committee for both your cousin and the lawyer.   If your cousin had you sign a POA when you did not have the capacity to do so he can be brought up on charges.  And if your lawyer told you to ignore illegal activity for his own personal gain - a new job - he can be brought up on charges.  And yes, you need to sue the pants off of everyone.  Good luck.
