On some jobs I do and I always have to deal with the clients own staff 
when I am doing consulting work.

I always raise my concerns with my client (except where the client is the 
bone-headed idiot in which case I take the money and shut up where 
possible).

At the end of the day you have a responsibility to your client to provide 
the service or inform of them of anything preventing you from doing so.

You also have a responsibility to yourself not to let a sitaution get you 
stressed out.
