I want to get out of a contract with a supplier

Introduction

Relationships between suppliers and customers are usually underpinned by contracts which protect both parties. Among other things, they set the length of the agreement.

In the current economic climate, many businesses may find themselves wanting to downsize their operation but committed to contracts with suppliers whose services they no longer need. Getting out of an agreement may not be a straightforward matter; if you breach a contract, you could face a costly compensation claim.
