Legal Question in Family Law in Pennsylvania

My daughter has moved out of the marital home in PA and has agreed to let him have the house.

Her attorney told her that husband must allow her entrance to the home to take her personal items. His lawyer has told him the same thing but he refuses and has changed the locks.

She gave her husband a list of what she wants from the house; including some items they bought as a married couple.

Her lawyer advised her that she has a legal right to break in to retrieve these items. Her husband will be left with most of the furniture.

What recourse does she have? She's not the "break-in" type.

Dear Mom,

She has an attorney and I will presume you daughter is an adult. Its her problem to deal with not yours. She needs to talk to her attorney and get the matter resolved.
