PARTNERSHIPS

Limited Partnerships

A Limited Partnership (LP) is a business structure that includes both general partners and limited partners. General partners manage the business and have unlimited liability, while limited partners contribute capital but have limited liability. Limited partnerships offer the flexibility of combining the strengths of different types of partners while managing risk through the limited liability system available. This structure is particularly beneficial for businesses that involve investors who want to have limited involvement in day-to-day operations of the business.

Key benefits of a Limited Partnership:

  • Limited liability for limited partners
  • Pass-through taxation (profits and losses are passed
  • through to partners)
  • Flexibility in management and profit distribution
  • Ideal for businesses seeking investors while retaining
  • control by general partners

Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs)

A Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) is a business structure where all partners have limited liability, protecting their personal responsibility for business debts or legal liabilities. LLPs are commonly used by professional service firms, such as law firms, accounting firms, and consulting firms. This structure allows partners to enjoy the benefits of a partnership while maintaining a flexible management structure.

Key Benefits of an LLP:

  • Limited liability for all partners (protects personal assets)
  • Pass-through taxation (profits and losses are passed through to individual partners)
  • Flexible management structure (partners can manage the business without formal requirements)
  • Ideal for professional service businesses with multiple owners who want protection

General Partners vs. Limited Partners

In a Limited Partnership (LP), there are two distinct types of partners: General Partners and Limited Partners. Understanding the roles and responsibilities of each is crucial when deciding on a partnership structure. Filing Express specializes in forming Limited Liability Partnerships and ensuring that your partnership is compliant with state regulations. Whether you're a law firm, consulting group, or other professional service business, we'll guide you through the formation process and help structure your partnership for success.

Limited Partners

are typically investors who contribute capital to the business but do not participate in the daily operations or management. Their liability is limited to the amount of their investment in the partnership, meaning they are not personally liable for business debts beyond their contribution.

General Partners

are responsible for the management and day-to-day operations of the business. They have unlimited personal liability, meaning their personal assets could be at risk in the event of business debts or lawsuits. However, they have full control over the business and its operations.

Understanding the balance between general partners and limited partners is essential when forming a partnership. Filing Express can help you structure your limited partnership, ensuring that each partner's rights and responsibilities are clearly defined and that the business is set up for success.
