So this is going to be a long one. I'm in a 12 month joint AST with my partner, due to end in August. I know what the legal stance is on my situation, but I'd like to know what my landlord is likely to do in my situation from a moral standpoint.
I've recently discovered I'm pregnant, and my partner has become severely abusive. I am ringing the police and women's aid tomorrow, but what is likely to happen with my tenancy? Obviously wens aid are likely to help remove me and my child from the property, but obviously I'm still liable for the rent on this place? Is there provision for this kind of situation where my landlord can let me out of the tenancy early? I'm so frightened, and I don't know where to turn. I'm also quite ashamed, so don't really want to discuss it with the landlord in too much detail. Thanks for reading.
