(((REDACTED)))

Now let's not confuse him with any other Ali Shekarchian! HIS HOME ADDRESS IS(((REDACTED PERSONAL ADDRESS))) He hides out at a cheap RENTAL IN SANTA MONICA to avoid the attorney's trying to serve him.  In fact, every Persian in Beverly Hills either knows him or has heard of him.  (((REDACTED)))

He uses everyone in his life.  His friends must serve a purpose or he has no use for them.  He is black listed from the Equnox (formerly the Sports Club LA) for being unethical!  (((REDACTED))) None of them have worked a day in their life.

I am Persian and really detest this type of character.  He has also done business with Persians and scammed them!!  They know it is a waste of time to pursue him legally because THE SHEKARCHIAN FAMILY makes sure they keep NOTHING IN THEIR NAME.  They hide their money overseas.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS EVIL PERSON!!!

And, here is just 1 example of a lawsuit he is involved in:
