Termination of a commercial sublease agreement

Hello,

I rented a shop on a sublease agreement from a tenant (who is not the original owner of the shop).

We wrote a sublease agreement at the nearest typing centre with certain terms and conditions which both parties signed. The license of the shop is also on his name which I am just the user of his license according to the agreement.

I have also provided a Bearer Cheque in advance for a few months. Now for a month, I am operating the shop. I see there is no business at all in the shop.

All the rent of the shop I am bearing from my pocket, and I see there is no future in any way in this particular shop.

So on the 4th of January, I notified him that I don't want to continue renting his shop. I will use the shop for a month since I notified him.

He does not agree on this point by any means, but the problem is I don't have any money left in my pocket for the future rent if I keep the shop.

Please guide me with the legal solution in this regard.

Dear Sir,

Based on your letter we need first to have a look at your rental agreement with him, as it's important to know all the details mentioned in it.

After that, we can give you the legal consultation and how you can fix this with him.

As you know, there is timing for the legal notice you should consider before canceling the rental agreement.

You can contact me during the working hours on this number 0527144440. Mrs Maisoon will help you with this case.

Regards
