I signed a 12 month lease agreement, and the landlord has refused to send me a copy. He recently asked me to start making the rent checks out to his girlfriend and so I told him that I wouldn't unless he provides me with a copy of the lease. I am concerned now because he had me meet him to sign it originally. What do I do if he provides me with an altered lease agreement of which I have no record of the original? Do I have any legal standing or am I just screwed?
