Generally, no. You might be able to "sue your way out" of it, but that takes legal muscle. If you sign a contract, particularly if you co-sign, then you are "on the hook" for the loan or whatever was contracted for. Someone wanted/needed something and could not swing it alone. You came along to help. You both signed and now you want to withdraw from the contract. Sorry, but both parties signed to insure delivery on the terms of the contract. If you want out, something substantial must have changed so that your co-signature isn't required to assure delivery on the contract. Has something changed? Has the other party you signed with suddenly come up with more resources to convince the "other side" that he alone can deliver? If not, then you're stuck. The two of you signed a promise to the other party, and that party expects satisfaction as regards the terms of the contract. You can always try to get things changed, but consider what the other side is looking at. When you take their point of view, be honest. Really put yourself in their shoes and ask yourself the tough questions. Odds are, if you were them, you'd keep yourself on the contract. Good luck in any case.
