Timeshare exit companies are businesses that offer services to help timeshare owners get out of their contracts. Only after you pay a large upfront fee they claim it's for lawyers and legal fees. 

 While some of these companies may be legitimate and provide helpful services, it's important to be cautious when dealing with them. Many of them fail to cancel your contract leaving you with your timeshare and out thousands of dollars.

 Some of these companies may charge high upfront fees, make false promises of guaranteed results, and pressure you to make a quick decision. It's always a good idea to research any company you're considering working with, read reviews, and ask for references. 

 Additionally, it's important to carefully review and understand any contracts or agreements before signing them. Ultimately, the decision to work with a timeshare exit company is a personal one, but it's important to do your due diligence to avoid scams and make an informed decision.
