The military lending act may allow active-duty service members to exit timeshares

by | May 16, 2023 | Consumer Protection

If you’re an active duty service member who purchased a timeshare and is struggling with the financial obligations, you may have a way out. The Military Lending Act (MLA) provides protections for service members against predatory lending practices, including those related to timeshare contracts.

Under the MLA, service members are protected from high-interest loans, mandatory arbitration clauses, and other unfair terms. The act also allows service members to sue lenders who violate its provisions.

If you believe that you were taken advantage of when purchasing your timeshare, you may be able to use the MLA to void your contract and obtain a fast exit from your obligations. This could save you from years of costly maintenance fees and other expenses associated with timeshare ownership.

To determine whether you have a viable claim under the MLA, it’s important to consult with an experienced attorney who specializes in military law. They can review your case and help you understand your options for legal recourse.
