Partnership Agreement Overview:
Thinking of starting a business with another person? Don’t start a business on a handshake. With a written partnership agreement, you can write down all issues that may come up in a business and avoid misunderstandings with your business partner in the future.
A partnership is a business owned by two or more people. Each partner has a role in running the business. Each partner can borrow and spend money for the business. On the other hand, each partner is liable for the debts of the partnership. Partners share in the profits according to their proportionate share. This is usually determined from the initial investment each partner makes in the business, but partners can agree on a different method in the agreement. Partnerships, as an entity, do not pay taxes. Each partner pays taxes on the income he receives from the business. Typically, a partnership ends when one partner leaves the business or dies. However, with a written partnership agreement, partners can decide ahead of time that the business can continue to operate even if one of them leaves. You can also decide what happens to a partner’s share when he leaves; who can buy the shares, and how the departing partner’s shares will be valued.

A limited partnership is different than a general partnership. First, a Limited Partnership is run by at least one general partner. The partnership raises money by having limited partners invest money in the partnership. The limited partners do not have a role in running the business. Limited partners receive compensation in proportion to their investment in the business. Limited partners generally are not liable for claims against the limited partnership. Like general partnerships, limited partners as well as general partners pay taxes on the income they receive from the limited partnership.
