Doesn't the contract provide for how the parties can terminate the agreement? I would need to see the actual contract before being able to give a reasonable answer.

Re: Consulting Project - Breach of Contract

The contract should provide guidance on cancellation or termination of the contract. Additionally, the contract may provide guidance on whether any dispute would need to provide to arbitration rather than litigation. I would need to take a look at the contract to determine what remedies are available and how best to proceed with enforcing the agreement.
