Re: Anyone have experience with Castle Law Group, PC out of Tennessee (by Marilyn M.):
We recently received a letter from Civil Consumer Communications in Washington D.C. inviting us to a consultation regarding the impact of dramatically changing time-share laws. Appointments were "extremely limited" so we set up at appointment at a local hotel. Surprisingly, we were the only "appointment". We met with Dave Froehlich who is supposedly a realtor in Scottsdale, Arizona who represented Castle Law in Tennessee. Three agencies, three states - and we haven't even started. Mr. Froehlich had a sales pitch 5 miles long and, interestingly enough, not much was said about "dramatically changing" time-share law, other than to suggest that we take a look at House Bill 453. We have time-shares in Mexico with what is now called Vida Vacations (name has changed at least 6 times in the 22 years we have had these time-shares). Of course, he said he was "familiar" with Vida Vacations and he could make our time-shares disappear for $4,500 - oh wait, you have 3 separate contracts (?) - price just went up to $10,000! Excuse me - need I remind him that it was ONE owner with ONE timeshare organization and instead of 6 weeks purchased all at once, it was 2 weeks purchased in 3 separate years. It isn't 3 separate lawsuits. Mr. Froehlich asked that we not go to Mexico in 2017 although reservations and airfare were already reserved, because "that would look like we enjoyed the resort". Hello? we LOVE the resort and have been going there for 22 years. He would not give us a defense as to how these contracts were going to be dismissed other than going to the resort in 2017 would not be a good idea. After walking away and doing some research and mulling over unanswered questions and reading 5 pages of negative dialogue and Jeff Johnson attempting to defend Castle Law, no thanks.
