Court orders are legal documents that you need to follow. However, if your child’s health or safety is in danger, it is okay to ignore a court order regarding custody. It is important to note that if you feel your child’s safety or health is in danger you cannot simply refuse to let the other parent see their child against the court order, you must contact the proper authorities. In a situation like this, you should call a family law attorney like Kendall Gkikas & Mitchell, LLP.
