Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Florida
Can you break a lease agreement
My husband car tire got slashed twice in our apartment complex parking lot. The next day my tire was loosing air, I had a nail, need it also to be replaced. My question my lease is up on July 31, 2007 can I leave before because of security reasons? By the way our neighbors cars got broken in to and other neighbor apartment got robbed.
Could you please advice me
Thanks a lot

Re: Can you break a lease agreement
An attorney will need to read your lease but you do have a right to be safe where you live. If you have a record of complaining to the landlord about the security problem, then you should be able to move out eventually. But consult an attorney first.
