Timeshare Aid

Protecting you from timeshare scams in Mexico

 

How Timeshare Aid Works

Our Timeshare Aid service is specifically designed to protect you from falling victim to timeshare scams in Mexico. We offer a comprehensive legal review of your timeshare agreement to ensure that it complies with Mexican laws and regulations. Our team of legal professionals is licensed in both Mexico and Canada, giving us the unique ability to help international clients who are unfamiliar with the intricacies of Mexican property law.

Here’s how our service works:

1. Review of Your Timeshare Contract

The first step in our service is a detailed review of your timeshare agreement. We examine every aspect of the contract, including the terms of purchase, cancellation policies, maintenance fees, and any other legal obligations. Our goal is to determine whether the contract is in compliance with Mexican consumer protection laws and real estate regulations.

During this process, we look for:

  • Transparency in the contract terms.
  • Compliance with Mexican law, including the Federal Consumer Protection Law (Ley Federal de Protección al Consumidor), which provides specific rights for timeshare buyers.
  • Any hidden fees or unfavorable conditions that were not properly disclosed at the time of purchase.

If we discover that your timeshare contract does not comply with Mexican law, we move on to the next step: assessing your legal options. Depending on the situation, you may have the right to:

  • Cancel the contract: Under Mexican law, buyers have a right to cancel a timeshare contract within a specific period (usually five business days) after signing the agreement. Even if this period has passed, certain legal defects in the contract may provide grounds for cancellation.
  • Seek restitution: In cases of fraud or misrepresentation, buyers may be entitled to seek a refund or restitution for the money they’ve already paid.
  • Negotiate better terms: If outright cancellation isn’t an option, we can help you negotiate more favorable terms, including lower maintenance fees or more flexible usage rights.

3. Exit Strategy Implementation

If we determine that your best option is to exit the timeshare contract, our team will handle the entire process for you. This includes:

  • Communicating with the timeshare company: We handle all correspondence with the timeshare company or resort on your behalf, ensuring that your legal rights are protected throughout the process.
  • Filing legal actions: If necessary, we can file formal complaints with Mexican consumer protection agencies (such as PROFECO) or pursue legal action to enforce your rights.
  • Negotiating settlements: In many cases, we can reach a settlement with the timeshare company that allows you to exit the contract without going through a lengthy legal battle.

FAQs


How a Mexican Canadian Lawyer can help me?

Legal systems and traditions in Mexico and Canada are quite different. The Mexican system is based on codified law and the Canadian system is based on common law/precedents. You need a lawyer licensed and experienced in both Mexican and Canadian law to identify issues and differences in order to avoid unnecessary mistakes and expenses.  It is also important to ensure items are properly enforceable and structured to operate as intended in both jurisdictions.

What is the main difference between hiring a Mexican Canadian Lawyer in Canada vs a local counsel in Mexico?

Two main differences are insurance and ongoing professional education requirements.  Insurance requirements are an important difference between Mexico and Canada; lawyers in Mexico are NOT required to have insurance to practice law.
