Can I break my lease agreement in CA?
I signed a lease agreement back in march of this year. It was only me however now My girlfriend and I want to move in together due to financial reasons and because we decided that it's time to move in together. However, My landlord isn't willing to accept my new roommate (partner) therefore I would like to break my lease. Is there a way I can do it without getting penalized? Also, I was going over the lease and he didn't mention anything about breaking the lease early. Is this a good or bad thing? What does this mean for me? Thanks in advance for your help!!!

Your landlord does not legally have to allow them to be added & you have no legal grounds to break the lease without paying either. NO the lease not stating a lease break fee does not get you out without penalty either. Any issue the lease is silent on is still bound by state law. A lease is a legally binding agreement & you cannot break it without penalty just because you want to. Time to grow up & join the adult world. You cannot just take your toys & go home when your feelers get hurt.

Hmm, that's very strange that the landlord won't allow your roommate. However, if you break the lease, which is a legal document, you are still liable for the rest of the year. Sorry.
