Yes, There is a law that protects the family. Call any lawyers office,and ask to speak to a Paralegal. I think it states you have the right to move because of fear for your safety and health. Because of the daughter it may also fall under different guidelines. Check and see if there is a legal aid in your area. If so I am on the board and know they would be glad to help answer your questions about this. |

I doubt it, you can speak to the management but a lease is a lease. |

For breaking the Lease agreement in a law full manner through court direction consult a legal practitioner of your locality . |

sadly you moved into a property that most likely doesn't check criminal history background. If your landlord is under a family owned business you might be able to work something out and break the lease due to your daughters safety, but if it is a big corp. property they might just say you signed a lease and what happened was not their problem, and that is unfourtunate, you'll be able to break the lease, but that goes on your credit and rental history and is not a good thing to have. The other family is who should be asked to leave...it they somehow got past us (the property i run) they would have been asked to leave immediately! but i know they wouldnt have even gotten in..thank god. I am so sorry that happened to you and your daughter..and if your landlord is unwilling to help you might want to seek legal help to break your lease. |

It was your moral obligation to your daughter to move. You cannot be punished for that in court. If you present that to the jury, you should be fine. |

Well, if you really care for your daughter safety, I suggest you breaking the lease agreement and forfeit the deposit you had with the owner. Of course this is last resort.
I suggest that you talk with the owner of property heart to heart and explain your situation and asked for the owner to release you from the agreement so that you can move to another location and have a better life for your daughter.
A lot of owner I believe can understand your situation and they will be nice enough to release you from the agreement.
Good luck |

i don't think the lease should matter you have to do what is rite for her regardless,But i would think under the circumstances that anyone governing the lease should work with you. if not check for legal assistance were you are. |

You may not have a legal right to break the lease... but you ARE right to break the lease... you needed to get your family out of a bad situation for their safety. |

These are obviously special circumstances. I agree, go to the landlord explain that you can't stay. Either way I'm out, next time he saw me would be when he is explaining to a judge why he's sueing me for past rent, and then you show him the police report. The judge would probably squash it on the spot. Either way I wouldn't care. |

Obviously this will require a lawyer for your problems, but you most likely have a legal right to break the contract because it poses a harmful situation to your family. |

well most contracts state u can break a lease only by death or medical reasons but i would get a good lawyer and fight what judge or jury would side with the complex i would think they would be liable for haven dangerous people living on the property cause usually molestation runs in the family which is just sick i totally would have moved to and get ur daughter some mental help and teach her that is is ok to talk about it even though it will kill u inside to listen peole like that have no idea what kind of pain they inflict people like that should be tortured not put in jail to live well crap a warm place to sleep 3 meals a day a tv to watchfree room and board i know guys in the joint are hard on rapers a more on child molesters but jail in my opinion is just to good just dig a deep hole lower them into it and just leave them there is just no cause for why people like that exist and i feel if our government and communityes cracked down with exterme force cases like this would become rare my heart goes out to your daughter as unfortunatly i know how she feels and what hurdles lay ahead but it really helps when u have someone there to comfort u when needed as i had no one so my heart and love goes to her ttfn |

I am so sorry about what happened to your daughter. It has to be very stressful for her. These circumstances can create more mental anguish for your daughter. I would think the apartment would be understanding in a case like that. Just talk to them. Anyone with half a heart & brain would let you out of your lease. If not, fight it and call a lawyer, he/she can turn things around quick for you-especially since the offenders family lives on the premises. The judge/jury will side with you. This creates a conflict of interest. Although it may not be the landlord's fault this happened, he/she will should want to maintain peace of mind for both parties. You should not have a problem breaking the lease-these are special circumstances.
Good Luck! |

I'm sure you landlord will understand, if he's any kind of a decent person. If not, call a few lawyers, they can definitely help you. |
