San Bernardino, CA asked in Contracts for California

Q: Is there a way i can get out of my home security contract if i have paid the equipment and no longer need their service.

I have a Vivint home security system and over the past year I’ve been trying to cancel but they want me to pay the rest of the contract term which I unfortunately don’t have the money for. I believe I have paid the full equipment and they are obligating me to pay the full contract as a termination fee when I can no longer pay it due to a financial crisis. Please help!!!!!

A: It's key to have a lawyer review the terms of your contract to determine your rights and duties, as well as the surrounding circumstances to determine whether there may be a paths forward for you. More details are necessary to provide a professional analysis of your issue. The best first step is an Initial Consultation with an Attorney such as myself. You can read more about me, my credentials, awards, honors, testimonials, and media appearances/ publications on my law practice website, www.AliEsq.com.
