Can I legally go get my kids from foster care, in the event of martial law or a declared state of emergency?

Discuss the court order that governs the custody or placement of your children with your lawyer. The current Covid-19 situation would not serve as a legal basis for violating an existing custody or placement order unless there are special provisions addressing that.

You can be arrested for felony kidnapping if you go get your kids. But you should hire a Juvenile Couet lawyer.

The current healthcare crisis would give you no legal authority to do anything except what the court has ordered I am sorry to report. Contact a family law attorney in your area and proceed that way so you don’t get arrested.
