How We Can Help

A break notice in a lease is a notice which either a landlord or tenant can serve on the other to terminate the lease before the contractual expiry date under the lease. There needs to be the contractual right in the lease agreement to terminate the lease before the expiry date. This will often come with conditions such as time restrictions on when you can serve.
