Our associates at M1 Legal confirmed a record week of awards for clients totalling over £405,000. The majority of cases were against well known European timeshare companies with an average award value of €19,000
All 21 contracts were declared null and void in the Spanish courts. In 2015 a Spanish law was introduced to protect timeshare consumers of illegal practices. Any owner with a Spanish timeshare contract dated after 5th January 1999 could be sitting on a lump sum!
Since January 2021, M1 Legal has secured 139 awards valued at £2.4 Million Pounds which is almost double what was achieved in the same period last year.
