Lost” Star Brings Hollywood Lawyer to Battle Baby Mama and Walks out with Sole Custody of Child

Published on January 7, 2009 at 4:35 PM

“Lost” star Naveen Andrews and the mother of his three-year-old son Naveen Joshua, Elena Eustache, were in L.A. County Superior Court,for a custody hearing. Naveen came armed with Hollywood high powered lawyer Laura Wasser and left family court with his son, while the baby mama was left crying on the courthouse steps.

The parents previously had joint custody, but Elana allegedly took the boy out of L.A. County without permission. Naveen also claimed Elena kept the boy from him.

TMZ reports Elena has alleged Naveen’s girlfriend, Barbara Hershey practices witchcraft and that Naveen and Hershey have poisoned the boy. In response, Wasser asked the judge to order Elana to undergo psychiatric testing.

The order was modified so Naveen now has sole physical and legal custody pending a full hearing next month. The kicker is under the new order, the boy is allowed to travel to Hawaii where Naveen films “Lost.” He can be accompanied either by Naveen or Hershey. The pic from TMZ, right shows the boy, Naveen, Laura Wasser and Barbara Hershey leaving court. After the ruling, the bailiff took the boy from Elena and gave him to Naveen, who left the courthouse with Hershey.

After the hearing Elena told TMZ, “I can’t believe celebrities and their money. They always get what they want.”  I sympathize with Elena but the witchcraft and poisoning the child stuff probably really hurt her credibility. Still when one side walks in with a high caliber lawyer and the other side doesn’t guess who usually wins.
