The court is not likely to force a meeting between the two of you if you cannot agree. If joint custody is not working in your situation, you might need to consider seeking to modify it.

These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.
