👋 Hello, everyone! In this Murphy Law Monday, we're discussing what to do if the other parent won't let you see your child.

🚓 If you have a court order, consider going to the police for enforcement, but try to communicate first to avoid hostility.

⚠️ If the child's safety is at risk (danger, danger, danger), involving the police may be necessary, even without a court order.

🚨 Emergencies like the child being in immediate danger or taken out of state can warrant filing an emergency petition.

📝 If no custody order or agreement exists, file for custody with the court, highlighting your lack of access and non-responsive co-parent.

🔒 You can also file for contempt if you have a court order and are denied access. Don't delay; time weakens your case.

⏳ Be mindful of time passing in custody disputes; document all communications and intentions.

Massachusetts law, where the case arose, applied an unconscionability analysis at the time of enforcement. The courts ruled in favor of the wife, highlighting the importance of skilled legal representation well-versed in relevant state laws.

More Details on Accounting for Contingencies in Wills

In addition to the contingencies discussed previously, there are two additional important scenarios to consider when creating a will. The first is ensuring that assets are placed in a trust if a beneficiary is too young to manage them responsibly. This contingency can be addressed by specifying that assets be held in trust until the beneficiary reaches a certain age, such as 21 or 25, or by restricting the use of assets to specific purposes like education.
