Tenants Divorcing

[Dan N.]

My tenant notified me today that she and her husband are divorcing. They are both on the lease which has about 7.5 months left on it. The list lists them as jointly and severally liable. I believe I have no legal obligation to break the lease for this reason, but I don't want to force a tenant to stay in a situation if it's a financial difficulty. If she's going to struggle to pay, then it seems like it's in my best interest to ensure a smooth transition. 

I have offerred to let them out of their lease if they or I find a qualified tenant to replace them. 

Any other suggestions on how to approach this?
