Contracts

Termination

Ending a contract. Termination for cause means ending it because the other side broke it; termination for convenience means ending it for any reason, usually with notice.

A plain-English explanation of how this usually works, not legal advice. Rules differ between countries and change over time, so check your own situation. Disclaimer.

You'll hear it as

They can terminate for convenience with 90 days' notice.

Why it matters to you.

If a client can terminate for convenience, the contract is only as long as its notice period, whatever the headline length.
