Early Termination Fee Completely Waived After Negotiation
In this case, we successfully helped a client obtain a full release from her apartment lease, including having her early termination fee completely waived.
Our client was experiencing serious issues with her apartment complex. Despite being forced to move for her own safety, the complex attempted to penalize her financially for ending the lease early.
The Situation
The client’s living conditions became unbearable, and remaining in the apartment was no longer a safe or reasonable option. Instead of working with her, the apartment complex sought to enforce the lease and impose a significant penalty.
Key facts of this case include:
The client needed to move due to safety concerns
The lease had 8 months remaining
The apartment complex assessed a $2,600 early termination fee
Our Approach and Result
Texas is widely recognized as a landlord-friendly state, and tenants are not automatically entitled to early lease termination. Outcomes like this are never guaranteed.
However, through careful negotiation and advocacy, we were able to:
Secure an early release from the lease
Reduce the $2,600 termination fee to $0
Relieve the client of further contractual obligations
This resolution allowed our client to move forward without the financial burden the apartment complex initially attempted to impose.
Why This Matters for Tenants in Texas
Life happens. Sometimes circumstances change in ways no one anticipates, and it is not always realistic or possible to fulfill a contract exactly as written.
While Texas law often favors property owners, negotiation can still make a meaningful difference in certain situations. When possible, we step in to communicate directly with apartment complexes and advocate for outcomes that protect our client’s best interests.

Caso de Éxito: Liberación de Contrato de Apartamentos
Tarifa de Terminación Anticipada Exonerada por Completo
En este caso, logramos liberar a nuestra clienta de su contrato de arrendamiento y que la tarifa de terminación anticipada fuera reducida de $2,600 a $0.
El complejo de apartamentos de nuestra clienta le causó múltiples problemas que afectaron su vida personal y su seguridad. A pesar de esto, intentaron penalizarla económicamente por tener que mudarse antes de tiempo.
La Situación
Nuestra clienta necesitaba salir del apartamento antes de que terminara el contrato.
Los hechos clave fueron:
Quedaban 8 meses en el contrato
El complejo exigía una tarifa de terminación de $2,600
Permanecer en el apartamento ya no era viable para la clienta
El Resultado
Texas es un estado que generalmente favorece a los propietarios, y para un inquilino no siempre es fácil salir de un contrato sin penalidades.
Aun así, pudimos:
Negociar una liberación anticipada del contrato
Lograr que la tarifa de terminación fuera eliminada por completo
Representar los intereses de nuestra clienta durante todo el proceso
Este fue un resultado muy positivo que ayudó a aliviar una carga importante en un momento difícil.
