A partnership is a voluntary association of two or more people carrying on a business for profit. LPs, LLPs, and GPs define roles, liability, and management rights to help you manage risk and coordinate decisions.
We outline formation steps, ownership interests, profit sharing, governance, and compliance checks, followed by drafting and filing with the appropriate state agencies.
Key terms include partnership agreement, operating agreement, limited partners, general partners, liability, fiduciary duties, and dissolution. See definitions below.
An LP contributes capital and shares in profits but has limited liability and limited control, typically managed by general partners.

An LP is a partnership structure with both limited and general partners, combining investment with management structure.
