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.
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 do not have access to a current statement for whatever reason, you can always contact the dealer where you leased the car. Some dealers will keep copies on file for reference, but even if they do not have it on hand, they should be able to get you the proper contact information so you can obtain it.
What you need is a notarized copy of the lease agreement. Bring the original to a notary. Tell them you need a certified copy of the document. They will make a copy of it and sign it, saying it's a certified copy of the lease.
It if matters to you personally to have an original (no matter which party you are), then sign two original copies. The landlord keeps the original, though in most states is required by law to supply a copy to the tenant. Both should technically be ORIGINALS…..as both must be signed by the landlord and tenant.
Once you've written out all the terms of your contract you can put it into a contract form by either using an online template or contacting a real estate attorney to help you draft the contract. A real estate attorney is the safe choice to make sure your contract follows local laws and will be legally binding.
Go To Your Landlord or Management Company This is the obvious answer. Not only is the person or company you signed the lease with the most likely to have a copy for themselves, many states legally require landlords to provide tenants a copy of the lease.

Generally apartment leases are not recorded at the Recorder's Office so they would not be "public" information - commercial leases may be recorded but not residential leases.
