If my business has to close, do I have to pay remaining 24 months on 36 months cable contract?

I opened a LLC company 1 year ago and signed a 3 year contract with the cable company. My business failed and I had to close it. It says I owe them $2,563 for the remaining 24 months even though they did not provide the services. Do I have any protection from their claim?

First, any attorney will need to read the actual signed agreement. Second, there may be several options for a reduction or elimination of payment, but the final answer will depend upon the writings and a clear recollection of the facts.
