You would want to consult a Probate and Estate lawyer. If your mother wrongfully converted assets that were to be held in Trust for you, your most direct claim would be against your mother. Other possible claims, depending on the facts, would be against anyone who helped your mother convert your money to her use or wrongly paid the money to her.

Most personal injury lawyers and most litigators could help you. but are you sure there were policies? You may not get anyone to help you go on a fishing expedition.

I think you should look for an estate planning lawyer where you live. He or she would know the law regarding the issues you wrote about.
