Your rental agreement should have stipulated first and last months rent at signing and a sizable security deposit. Also include language that they will forfeit last month's rent and security deposits if they break the rental agreement by leaving before the end of the rental period. If your agreement included those provisions, cut your loses. You'll spend more money going to an attorney.

We have a 1 year Lease/Rental agreement that started 2/01/21 thru 01/3122 that has very concise and specific default provisions.
Renter has advised they will be abandoning our rental on or before 09/01/21, thus
defaulting on the following 4 months rental. This amounts to significant dollars.
I contacted Sumter County Sheriff Dept. they can't do anything without a court order.
Have now contacted 2 attorney firms close to TV, left voicemail asking if they handle
this type of case. Asked to reply either way, thus far no reply from either.
I am not going to just sit in a corner on this, letting the Renter get away with this.
Now in WI but will be flying to TV 09/02/21. Thanks in advance for any help on this.
