How do I Get Off My Old Lease When I Have to Leave Because of DFV?

Tenancy legislation in QLD now allows survivors of Domestic and Family Violence to leave a lease with only 7 days notice.

This has dramatically simplified the normal process of having your name taken off a joint lease as previously everyone on the lease had to sign paperwork – something that’s impossible when there’s DFV in the home.
