Drama Intensifies in Mel Gibson's Child Custody Case

The drama intensifies in the separation case between Mel Gibson and his ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva as they battle overchild custody. Grigorieva argues that Gibson should not be allowed to obtain overnight custody of their infant child, using the testimony of Dr. Shawn McCoy, a licensed clinical social worker, to back up her case. To date Gibson has had one overnight visit per week so far without any recorded incidents.

So far Grigorieva has used 39 lawyers in her battle with Gibson, 18 of which have collectively racked up $1 million in legal fees. She believes that Gibson should also have to pay this sum along with any other monetary settlements. Her most recent lawyer, Lisa Bloom, told TMZ that she took on Grigorieva's case pro bono to show her support for domestic violence victims.
