Hi all. I run a facility in Ohio and recently had a tenant state that items were stolen from their unit. Now they are threatening legal action. Before I talk to an attorney (they can be pricey), I was wondering if anyone can help me out? I tried pulling up the lease agreement and as of right now I can’t find it. I know one was signed but it’s lost in the system somewhere. They are saying that they never signed one and have never been in the office. So I was wondering, if I can’t find the contract, do verbal agreements hold up? They have made at least 2 payments on the unit so would that constitute a contract by default and would they be bound by the clauses in it? Any help would be greatly appreciated

And are they trying to say YOU stole them? If he/she provides their own lock, was there proof of tampering?
Good Luck
