Legal Question in Family Law in Pennsylvania

Re: video taping a custody pick up and drop off

Videotaping another is covered under the wiretap law in PA. Generally, you cannot make sound recordings of another even in a face to face situation. Therefore if the there is an audio portion of the video tape than you've broken the law and its a 3rd degree felony.

There are ways around this but they require getting permission of all parties.

I don't suppose those family center employees were lawyers.

If you have any questions feel free to contact me. The initial consultation is free.
