Timeshare Nightmare Resolved

I owned a timeshare week at a resort for many years. I generally made some use of it each year, so was happy to pay the annual maintenance fee each year. Then one year my preferences in recreation and vacations changed radically, and I had no further use for the timeshare week. I tried to sell it,... but could not find a buyer at any price. I tried giving it away, but no takers, not even any charities. Although this was a deeded type of timeshare, I found that this piece of real estate which I had paid thousands of dollars for was now worth next to nothing. I offered to deed it back to the resort, and was ignored. I then informed them that I wanted nothing more to do with the timeshare and that I would no longer be paying annual maintenance fees. The next surprise was that under state law as long as I was the owner of record, I was obligated to pay fees each year. Since I had bought it "used" from a private party instead of directly from the resort, that little detail was not disclosed to me at the time of purchase. I was always given the impression that the fee was merely to entitle me to use of the week. 8 years went by, and the fees, interest, penalties, and collection agency add-ons kept multiplying. Soon I had a total amount supposedly due, for nearly as much as I had purchased the week for! Fearing potential threats to my assets, and even possibly to my estate and heirs, I began looking for an attorney specializing in timeshare issues. Although this area of law seems to be avoided by most attorneys, Michael Finn of Finn Law Group stood out as one of the courageous few. I retained him to represent me and find a solution to the problems. Mr. Finn and his group were outstandingly successful in negotiating the resort's acceptance of a deed of the timeshare week back to them, in lieu of foreclosure and other costs. Although I got nothing back from equity in the "property" (because its value had dropped to nearly nothing), I was relieved of past unpaid assessments and any future obligation to pay them. The legal fee I was charged was very reasonable for the services I received. I am exceptionally pleased with the service provided by Michael Finn and Finn Law Group.

Timeshare Relief!

We contacted the Finn Law Group for help ridding my wife and I of a timeshare whose maintenance fees we could no longer afford. In a matter of 4 months they took care of transferring the timeshare back to the resort with no personal involvement on our part. The fee was reasonable and the Finn Law G...roup even paid the transfer fee out of our retainer. We have total confidence in their professionalism and expertise in this area. We will use them in the future, without doubt, when 2 other timeshares we still have are no longer affordable due to the rising cost of maintenance fees

Great Services

Mr. Finn and his staff are great at what they do. Him and his staff got me out of a Timeshare that wasn't beneficial for me or my family. I also used his service to look over real estate documents and get funds returned. I would recommend this firm any day.

Excellent group of professionals and great service!

Words could not express how THANKFUL I am to Michael D. Finn and his group of professionals for helping me and my daughter out of this timeshare scam. I was taken my this industry of timeshares and was having problems with keeping up. My life changed drastically and I tried dealing with the company ...but they did nothing to help. I tried other companies that say they could help but it was an other risk because they wanted a lot of money to start the process and see if it was possible to get out of my timeshare. One day I was looking up information and found Mr. Finn's Group, I was skeptic but I got to speak with Michael Finn, a great experience...I felt confident and took the risk. I will never be able to put in words how relieved and happy I am. Just this month I made my last payment to his office and they were worth every penny. I got out of my nightmare. In a matter of weeks my case was solved. I won't say your case will be cleared as soon but I know I had a group of professionals working for me and sure you will too. To all the staff at Mr. Finn's office...Thank you from the bottom of my heart...I wish every situation could be fixed by just hiring your services. I even got a payment plan...so don't hesitate if you have a real estate problem, they'll be honest and tell you all the possibilities depending on your case. Happy Holiday's!
