Re: Manhattan Club Lawsuit (by Karen B.):

I began working with an attorney more than a year ago to get out of my contract with TMC. Of course I still own because they currently aren't buying, selling, or taking units back because of the AG investigation and settlement. I did contact the AG office to get some idea of when I might be able to give my unit back. I recently got a reply but all it said was "Please be advised that the Manhattan Club is not allowed to buy and sell timeshares in the state of New York." so I did not get my question answered.

I am current with my maintenance fees but after 20 years of rising fees, I am just plain finished with TMC. I wasn''t looking to get anything other than to stop paying fees and get out of the contract. After making many calls to law firms, I decided to bite the bullet and hire one of the more reasonably priced ones with good reviews to the tune of $4000. I figured if I never paid another maintenance fee, which I won't be doing, I would be ahead in less than 2 years. So here is the reason for this post. I am just putting my 2 cents worth into this conversation to say that in light of what I have paid, $1250 seems to me a very reasonable retainer fee for ZLG. I am not sure what I am doing at this point in regard to ZLG but if I didn't already have something in the works I would definitely participate. Let me repeat, I am getting nothing for my imoney other than to be out of my contract.
