A free consultation is an initial case review designed to determine whether legal timeshare cancellation may be available in your situation and is conducted by members of our legal team, not necessarily your attorney. During this discussion, our legal team reviews the basic facts of your ownership, identifies potential legal issues, and explains your available options. This consultation is intended to provide clarity about your rights, risks, and next steps before any action is taken.
At Finn Law Group our timeshare lawyers begin by reviewing your contract, sales experience, and ownership history to identify legal leverage. This may include rescission rights, misrepresentation, disclosure violations, or unfair sales practices. When appropriate, an attorney will pursue negotiations or formal legal action to obtain a documented and enforceable cancellation.
Timeshare developers often resist releases because maintenance fees generate long-term revenue. When a developer refuses to cooperate, the timeshare attorneys at Finn Law Group can apply contractual, statutory, or litigation-based pressure to challenge improper conduct and pursue cancellation through lawful means.
In many situations, yes. Depending on the ownership structure, estate documents, and state law, timeshare obligations may be disclaimed or excluded from inheritance. A legal review by an attorney at Finn Law Group can help determine whether heirs can avoid assuming ongoing financial responsibility.
Finn Law Group office hours are Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Messages received outside normal business hours are logged and routed appropriately, with responses typically provided within one business day.
Consultations at Finn Law Group can be scheduled by phone or in person. Once scheduled, your matter is reviewed by legal professionals experienced in timeshare law rather than non-legal call center staff.
The timeline depends on the resort, contract terms, and whether litigation is required. Some cases resolve through negotiation, while others take longer if disputes must be formally challenged. After review, an attorney at Finn Law Group can provide a realistic timeframe based on similar cases.
The attorneys at Finn Law Group have represented consumers in complex legal matters for over thirty years and Finn Law Group relocated its headquarters to Florida in 2011 to better serve timeshare owners nationwide. The firm’s experience includes negotiation, litigation, and consumer-protection enforcement.
Independent legal directories and consumer organizations provide third-party ratings, reviews, and professional standing information. These resources allow prospective clients to evaluate credibility and experience before hiring counsel.

The intake process at Finn Law Group is straightforward. A client services coordinator assists with engagement documents, explains next steps, and ensures all required information is collected so the case can proceed efficiently.
Misrepresentation and deceptive sales practices are common in timeshare transactions. If sales promises conflicted with written terms or required disclosures were missing, legal remedies may exist, including cancellation or other relief.
State and federal laws regulate timeshare sales, disclosure requirements, rescission rights, and unfair trade practices. These laws vary by jurisdiction, and proper application requires a legal analysis of the specific contract and purchase circumstances.
Maintenance fee increases alone may not justify cancellation, but they can be relevant when combined with contractual or sales-practice violations. A Finn Law Group attorney can evaluate whether fees factor into a broader legal claim.
Stopping payments without a legal strategy may result in collections, foreclosure, or credit damage. Consulting an attorney at Finn Law Group before withholding payment helps ensure you understand the risks and safer alternatives.
Yes. Early legal intervention by Finn Law Group may reduce damage or create leverage for resolution. If foreclosure proceedings have begun, legal advice should be sought immediately.
Cancellation legally terminates your contractual obligation. Resale involves transferring the interest to another party. Many timeshares have little to no resale value, and resale scams are common, making legal review essential.
Avoid paying upfront resale fees, verify credentials, and consult a Finn Law Group attorney before signing a resale agreement. Fraud is widespread in the resale market, and caution is critical.
Rental rights depend on contract language. An Finn Law Group attorney can review restrictions, explain your rights, and advise on dispute resolution if conflicts arise.
At Finn Law Group, clients can expect transparency, ongoing communication, and legally grounded strategies. The process focuses on documented outcomes and keeping clients informed from consultation through resolution.
