How our law firm came to be.
The dual-service model did not exist when we started. We built it because timeshare owners needed something the industry was not offering.
Newton Group was founded in 2005 and began providing timeshare exit services in 2005. In 2017, Newton Group partners co-founded DC Capital Law so owners could receive genuine legal representation alongside exit services. Newton Group now delivers both under one service agreement, for one flat fee, with a licensed attorney on every case.
Fifteen-plus years ago, there were only a handful of companies offering exit services at all. Owners who felt trapped by a contract had few real places to turn — and even fewer that could be trusted to see the process through.
As the market changed, Newton Group recognized a hard truth: many owners did not just need help navigating an exit — they needed genuine legal representation. A salesperson and a form letter were never going to be enough for the situations Newton Group kept seeing. The Newton Timeshare Exit Study, which surveyed over 10,000 ownership experiences, put numbers to what advisors were hearing on the phone every day.
So in 2017, Newton Group partners joined with experienced attorneys to co-found DC Capital Law — a separate, independent law firm dedicated to giving timeshare owners real, individual legal counsel. It let us combine two kinds of expertise that had never been offered together: seasoned exit specialists and licensed attorneys, on the same case, for the same owner.
That combination is why Newton Group can leverage all available exit options — where so many exit and cancellation companies misrepresent them. Some go further still and cross a legal line, which is why Newton Group publishes a scam alert on the unauthorized practice of law in timeshare exit.
