Guy Ritchie has hired a leading divorce lawyer to help fight his bitter divorce war with Madonna - before heading to the pub to celebrate.

The film director has recruited expert child custody specialist Stephen Cobb QC after claims his wife wants to settle in New York with their three children.

And a bleary-eyed Guy celebrated with pals at his London pub The Punch Bowl, leaving at 1am looking unsteady on his feet.

The doting dad is desperate to raise son Rocco, adopted son David Banda and stepdaughter Lourdes in the U.K.

Whilst Madonna wants to move back to New York to bring them up.
