Q: how would I report a crime if someone signed a lease agreement without me giving them consent to sign it on my behalf?
should I talk to a lawyer on what I can do and if so who would I look into. since I live in Georgia but this lease agreement is for Buffalo, NY
A:
YES! You have two options, the second of which is my humble recommendation. 1. File a police report and cross your finger, or; 2. File a DIRECT COMPLAINT to the District Attorney's office in your county (the forms can be found online via web search) and an assigned ADA will promptly contact you.
You also have several civil remedies available; contact an attorney who offers free consultations to explore your remedies here.
