<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Investigations revealed that the Los Angeles based urgent and emergency care doctor, who also treated drug and alcohol addiction, had been involved in years of multiple bitter legal battles with his ex-wife, Aheng Zarin Kelk. <br>The almost two decades-long battle had degenerated to the point where Mirshojae even accused Kelk, 54, of threatening to kill him.<br>After the father-of-four was shot dead from point-blank range in broad daylight outside his Woodland Hills clinic at 5:30pm on August 23, it was revealed that the doctor had been the victim of a beating that saw a gang of men set upon him with baseball bats just months earlier. </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The odyssey of legal wrangling between the former couple kicked off in 2009 when the couple divorced. It has since escalated.

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The litany of suits continued in May, when Dr. Mirshojae sued his Kelk for fraud. <br>He accused her of transferring her assets to her mother and other family members, obscuring ownership in a bid to stop his collecting on a cash settlement, he had been awarded in previous trials.<br>The pair were due to face off again Friday in a hearing about the fraud case which is a dispute about her alleged failure to pay the $270,000 settlement he was awarded from a 2021 case where he lodged the initial allegation of fraud against Kelk. <br>He also claimed that she was operating an illegal marijuana dispensary out of a building in which they both had interests.<br>An application by Mirshojae for a further $600,000 in attorney fees is pending after the doctor accused his ex-wife of breaching a settlement the former couple reached in 2017, and while Kelk was criminally prosecuted over the dispensary in 2022, those charges were dismissed.</p>
