State laws on leases and rental agreements can vary, but a landlord or property management company should provide you with a copy of your signed lease upon request. You should make your request in writing, so you have proof if there is a dispute later.

If you want one then you should make a copy at the time of signing if handed a paper copy, or sign two copies so that you each have one. But once the lease is already signed there is no specific law requiring the landlord to give you a copy.
