General Partnership

Business owners looking to establish a partnership have a number of options available to them regarding what type of partnership they would like to form, with one of the most popular being a general partnership. As one of the more easy-to-form types of businesses, a general partnership is usually chosen by two or more people looking to work together and share in both the profits and losses of the company.

While general partnerships may not be as complicated as other types of businesses, there are still many details and complicated legal nuances that you will have to take into consideration when forming your business. As such, it is invaluable to have the help and guidance of an experienced and knowledgeable legal professional as you form your business.

Facets Of General Partnerships

There are a number of reasons why professionals choose to create general partnerships. When you are considering forming such a business, you should understand the following aspects and benefits a general partnership offers:

• Liability — every partner shares equal liability for the debts and losses of the partnership and the actions of the other partners
• Profits — any gains/profits that are made are shared among the partners equally
• Assets — property and other assets that are owned by the partnership are owned in equal parts by the partners
• Continuance — general partnerships do cease to exist once a partner leaves or dies; however, many partnerships provide for these circumstances by creating agreements in which the partnership or company can continue

At Adam Pugh, we understand how important making the right professional decisions for your business is. As such, we strive to make sure you understand the many facets of forming a general partnership and how it will impact your company specifically and your professional goals.
