Looking for legal advice in regards to terminating a 1 year lease early. The lease is up next March. I do know that there could be some stiff legal action taken against me for terminating a lease early. Here is where it gets dicey:
I am on the lease, jointly, with my girlfriend. We are in the middle of breaking up. She lost her job and is looking for work, but will not entertain the idea of moving out until the lease is done. She cannot financially pull that off. The reason for me leaving is because the relationship is rather violent. She has been arrested twice for domestic abuse against me. I have two kids from a prevoius marriage and I will not allow them, nor will their mother, to be around this person ever again. What i have been doing for the past 3 months is when I have my kids, I stay at hotels and/or friends houses. I cannot keep up with that financially anymore.
My ex-wife about to get a restraining order on this person, simply due to this fact. I Is there anything I can do legally, to get out of this enviroment? Could a restraining order be a case for terminating a lease early on my end?
