Manhattan Club Lawsuit
john a.................. unless we get a cadre of ny's finest attorneys (as eichner has managed to accumulate) forget about a lawsuit to combat eichner's apparently fraudulent tactics and the sham he created called the manhattan club management. owners NEED TO BE MORE CREATIVE AND PRESENT A UNITED FRONT TO GET ANY RELIEF FROM EICHNER'S SHABBY TREATMENT. START DIRECTLY WITH COMMUNICATION TO THE NYS ATTORNEY GENERAL...DIRECTLY, NOT ONE OF HIS UNDERLINGS. THEN NOTIFY THE NEW YORK MEDIA: NEWSPAPERS, TV, RADIO.............COME ON GUYS, LOOK AT ALL OF THESE POSTS DATING BACK AT LEAST 2 YEARS...........AND WE'RE STILL TYPING AWAY AT OUR RESPECTIVE COMPUTERS, ALL TO NO AVAIL WHILE WE WALLOW IN THE MUCK THAT EICNHER THROWS OUR WAY.

FORGET ABOUT LAWSUITS. IT APPEARS THAT EICHNER HAS AN NEARLY IMPENETRABLE CADRE OF ATTORNEYS, THAT WILL WIN EVERY LAWSUIT. SALVATORE REALE, DIRECTOR OF MANHATTAN CLUB OPERATIONS MUST HAVE HIS PHONE LINES FLOODED WITH OUR LEGITIMATE COMPLAINTS, AMONG WHICH ARE: INFLATED MAINTENANCE FEES AND NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE RESERVATION-MAKING PRACTICES.
CALL SALVATORE REALE AT THE MANHATTAN CLUB. FLOOD HIS PHONE LINES LEGITIMATELY.

johna916 Please send me your info on the buy-back process and your lawyer. We purchased a Bi-annual unit back in Oct 2000. Originally thought it was great, but have grown over the past 6 years to hate TMC for its inability to honor its owners' right to secure a reservation. I've written to the MC Board and talked with Salvatore Reale (Dir. of Operations) without any success.
What's the status on the new lawsuit filed by Mr Blau for deceptive business practices?? I'd like to get in on that. Can someone point me in the right direction? dave murray (davidm1795)

you might consider not even considering becoming a part of the current manhattan club class action law suit. believe me, it's a "been there done that" situation for me...........and a losing battle (unless more legal ammunition, expertise and experience has been added: keep in mind, the last class action lawsuit was summarily dismissed by the court; i believe the same law firm has been retained for the new suit.) so caveat personnae!!

What is the point of joining this class action suit? The judge refused to hear the case the last time. That tells me the owner of The Manhattan Club is connected politically. I am going to find a good attorney to just get me out of this rotten investment. These class actions seem worthless. In the meantime, I pay nearly $3,000 a year for a place I cannot use.

john, you're sooooooooooooooo right. why haven't others in this forum picked up on this?? what we need is a "hot shot" new york attorney who knows timeshare/condominium law like the back of his/her hand; only then will we begin to see some light re: the (i assume) illegally and exorbitantly high maintenance fees at THE MANHATTAN CLUB together with inaccessible, desirable reservation dates......only to find out that non-owners can get almost any date they want if they go to the right web site, including one of THE MANHATTAN CLUB'S own site.

I am not sure a class action law suit will get anywhere. My attorney told me the contract (it's all in the fine print) we signed when we bought these timeshares protects The Manhattan Club from not having time available, among other things. The salesmen from whom you bought the timeshare -- I am sure -- did not take the time to review the contract. So, I am going to sell my unit back. I have an excellent attorney who knows how to do this. I am spending close to $3,000 in maintenance fees on a place I never get to use. Time to cut my losses!

John A Could you send me the name and phone number of your attorney as well? rmm2004@hotmail.com. I am helping family members selling their MC units back. Thanks!

We are hoping to find an attorney in metro NYC to assist us in selling our Manhattan Club timeshare. Like so many others, we fell for the sales pitch and were told all the lies about access to 5 star properties and ease in booking resorts and hotels. When searching online for owners reviews of MC and RCI (feeling completely foolish that we did not do so before we bought), we were shocked to see how many people were also trying to get rid of their timeshares for the same reasons. Now that the class action suit of 2012 has been settled, we are unsure what recourse we have. Any suggestions or referrals will be greatly appreciated.

Can you suggest a name of a lawyer to help us get out of this terrible situation?
