While it’s understood that a timeshare contract is a legally binding document, our hired legal team will advise that it is mistaken to think that such a contract cannot be cancelled. This is a myth perpetuated by timeshare developers and user groups that are funded, maintained and controlled by the timeshare industry. Further advice from the legal experts is that under general contract law, the truth of the matter is that contracts are cancellable for a variety of reasons including fraud, misrepresentation and failure of consideration. 

While the legal experts that work in conjunction with this process have years of experience litigating against these timeshare giants, VOC provides a streamlined method that is oftentimes more affordable and effective than hiring a litigation attorney directly.

In recent years new techniques pioneered by real estate attorneys who specialize in timeshare litigation have emerged. These techniques reached their ultimate fruition in a series of lawsuits filed on behalf of a group of timeshare owners who wanted nothing more than the complete release, termination and cancellation of their timeshare interests. 

Other similar actions have followed, all seeking cancellation and termination of timeshare interests for the type of fraudulent and deceptive conduct that is frequently utilized by timeshare salespeople to induce unwitting potential owners to sign on the dotted line. Such conduct includes the following representations, typically made at the time the timeshare was sold:

• That the timeshare interest purchased would appreciate and increase resale price and value over time.
• That the timeshare interest purchased could be freely exchanged, transferred and sold.
• That the timeshare interest purchased was a financial investment.
• That the timeshare interest purchased would result in the purchaser receiving booking priority over non – purchasing vacationers wishing to stay at one or more of the properties owned and/or maintained by the defendant. As a result of the filing of such actions, timeshare companies have become more amenable to releasing timeshare owners from their timeshare obligations even without resorting to litigation and client ever having to appear in court.

The success of the legal experts that work in conjunction with this service have contributed to the creation of an alternative to litigation that is a streamlined process and almost always more affordable. Oftentimes provides a more effective solution to eliminate your unwanted timeshare compared to selling your timeshare, or engaging in class action or personal litigation.
