Yep. She's got ANOTHER lawyer.

Oksana Grigorieva has hired a Legal Ethics Specialist, Jonathan Arons, to investigate whether or not her $15 million mediation settlement with Mel was unlawful.

Here's what Oksana's MAIN lawyer, Daniel Horowitz, had to say about the specialist:

“He is going to analyze the mediation process and agreement to determine whether or not the agreement was unlawful. If so, we must then determine if it is void in its entirety.”

The hiring of this new lawyer plays into the new strategy from Oksana's legal team, which is based on the idea that she was a victim of extortion by Mel.

Based on a draft of a settlement agreement, which both Oksana and Mel signed, she promised to destroy all MELtdown-related evidence, in exchange for $15 million.

Horowitz is saying the following about Mel's agreement with Oksana:

"It is my understanding that attorneys are not permitted to take evidence of a crime and destroy that evidence, under Californian law."

And so it continues…

What do U think of Oksana's legal team's new strategy?
