Depending on how your lease agreement is worded, you have to prove that the landlord violated the terms of the lease, somehow. Show that the property wasn't maintained properly despite your requests for repairs and take pictures. Or if you feel unsafe because of burgulary or theft that occured on you. If someone broke into your residence or vehicle or you were the victim of a crime on the property, you can probably get out of the lease without any obligations.

That can be tough...read your lease...it was not written in your favor, but if the place is not up to code[building inspector] or unsanitary[health dept]..has roaches[health dept]...or has problems like excessive noise at odd hours[local ordinance] then you have a shot...you will have to send a letter to owner of property stating your demands to repair, within a time frame, say if it's roaches you call the health dept, and it needs to be fixed within 5 days of letter sent
then you give notice to vacate....you still may end up in court, but document everything.

talk to the person you have the lease give them a sob story they may let you out with a penalty. You can contact your local credit counseling service they may be able to negoiate with them for you.
