Early lease termination depends on the specific terms of your lease agreement. Some leases include early termination clauses, while others may require negotiation or result in penalties. Our attorneys can review your lease and advise on the best course of action.
Document all communication regarding the needed repairs. If the landlord fails to address the issue, you may have legal options, including withholding rent or seeking court intervention. Consult with our attorneys to understand your rights and the appropriate steps to take.
In most cases, a landlord cannot legally change locks without following proper eviction procedures. If this happens, it may be considered an illegal lockout. Contact our office immediately if you’re facing this situation.
