Episode 5 - When COVID Vaccinations and Custody Rights Collide: A Discussion with Dori Green

In episode 5 of the Law in the Family podcast, cohosts and family law attorneys Aaron Weems & Anthony Hoover talk with Dori Green. Last summer, Dori wrote an article about the intersection of COVID vaccines and legal custody rights of parents. In a short period of time, much has evolved including preliminary approval of children under 12 years of age being vaccinated and interesting Orphans Court opinion out of Chester County addressing vaccinations in an incapacitate adult child. They discuss the Chester County decision, pre-COVID vaccination laws and holdings, and what we may see in the courts going forward on this issue.

Dori F. Green, an associate in the Family Law practice, represents individuals in matters involving divorce, custody, relocation, petitions for return pursuant to the Hague Convention, support, alimony, equitable distribution, name-change petitions, marital settlement agreements, and premarital agreements.
