    Default Are Leases Public Info

    State WV
    Is a lease public information?
    I rented a house out to a man who is getting a divorce his soon to be ex wants to see the lease and has requested I send it to her. I would think she could have her lawyer request it but if I hand it out with out a lawyer isn't that a violation of privacy?

    I would not provide a copy of any contract to a person who is not a party to the contract without a court order directing me to do so. If his soon-to-be ex wants a copy of his lease, she, or her attorney, should ask him for a copy. I don't know WV law, so there may be some quirk that someone else here can address. But, I believe that he could have an action against you if you provide the copy, absent a court order. The request coming to you from an attorney wouldn't change this.

    If she has not signed this lease tell her to have her Attorney contact you. Do not show her anything
