Federal and state consumer laws allow people to cancel certain contracts or sales of goods for any reason, such as buyer's remorse, or for no reason at all. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) requires sellers of goods in certain circumstances to allow consumers a “cooling off” period.
Your client may have a valid reason to back out of the contract, such as a personal or financial crisis, a change of heart, or a better opportunity.
Can clients terminate a contract before the standard notice period is over? Yes, clients can, but this is not considered best practice in the client-contractor professional relationship.
The FTC's three day “cooling off” period allows consumers to void a contract they have signed within three business days without incurring any penalties.
The three-day period is called a "cooling off" period. You might use that law after hastily agreeing to have someone repave your driveway, deliver lawn fertilizer, or put a new roof on your house. You can cancel these contracts simply because you've changed your mind.
