Class Action Against Diamond Resorts? (by Irene P.):

Sierra Class actions are not really appropriate for fraud by inducement because, according to attorneys, all damages are not uniform like a medical device failure. You can have a class action for things like excessive maintenance fees, special assessments. Diamond has a class action ban in their contract forcing arbitration. Most timeshare attorneys feel arbitration is very pro-industry and if you lose the arbitrator can order you to pay Diamond arbitration fees, which can exceed the amount of the damage. The best advice I can offer is keep calling. On both class actions filed, the judge ruled in favor of arbitration.
