Ontario Law Society suspends lawyer’s licence over ties to alleged serial fraudster Missaghi
November 21, 2024
The Law Society of Ontario has suspended the licence of another Toronto lawyer for his ties to accused serial fraudster Arash Missaghi, who was gunned down earlier this year by an aggrieved client.The licence of Shahryar Mazaheri, the seventh lawyer to be penalized for working with the man, was suspended on an interlocutory basis in a Nov. 12 ruling by the society. It found that there were reasonable grounds to believe that allowing him to continue practising presented a “significant risk of harm to the public.”A Law Society of Ontario (LSO) tribunal cited Mr. Mazaheri’s legal work, which tribunal members believed factored into an alleged real estate fraud that concluded in the shooting in which Mr. Missaghi, one of his associates and the gunman died.
