Partnership
Partnership Agreement
New York
Can a partner in a partnership agreement be held liable for the actions of another partner?
I am currently in a partnership agreement with two other individuals, and we have recently encountered a situation where one of the partners engaged in illegal activities on behalf of the partnership. I am concerned about the potential liability that I may face as a result of their actions, and I would like to know if it is possible for a partner to be held personally liable for the actions of another partner in a partnership agreement.
Akash K.
As with most legal questions, the answer is "it depends". In this case, it would depend largely on the relationship between your partner's illegal activities and the partnership - which would also be impacted by the type of partnership, terms of the partnership agreement and any actual or constructive knowledge you and/or your partner had regarding the illegal actions. However, in some cases it would be possible to be held personally liable for your partner's actions.

Can I revoke a settlement agreement?
I recently entered into a settlement agreement with a business partner to end a dispute. However, I have since discovered that they did not fully disclose the terms of the agreement and I believe I have been deceived. I am now unsure if I should revoke the settlement agreement and pursue other legal options. Can I revoke a settlement agreement?
Darryl S.
This is a situation where fraud by the counterparty may possibly allow for revocation, but the agreement must be reviewed by legal counsel and the facts must establish a strong case.

Assignment Of Partnership Interest
Texas
Can a partner assign their interest in a partnership without the consent of the other partners?
I am a partner in a small business partnership, and one of my fellow partners is looking to assign their interest in the partnership to a third party. However, we do not have any provisions in our partnership agreement regarding the assignment of partnership interests. I am concerned about the implications of this assignment and whether it can be done without the consent of the other partners. I want to understand the legal rights and obligations surrounding the assignment of partnership interests in order to make an informed decision and protect the interests of all partners involved.
Thomas D.
It is highly unusual that your partnership agreement does not address this issue. If there is no agreement to the contrary, then subject to very limited exceptions, a partner can assign its partnership interest.

How do I get out of a partnership agreement?
I am looking at options on how to get out of a business partnership I entered into last year.
Donya G.
It will depend on what your partnership agreement says. You would have to look to the language of the agreement you signed to determine that. DISCLAIMER The answers to these questions do not constitute legal advice and does not create an attorney-client relationship with the attorney and anyone who reviews these responses.

Settlement Agreement
Massachusetts
How binding is a settlement agreement?
I recently entered into a settlement agreement with a former business partner. We both agreed to the terms of the settlement, however, I am now concerned that the other party may not follow through with their obligations. I want to know how binding the settlement agreement is and if there are any legal consequences if the other party does not fulfill their obligations.
Patrick N.
First of all, it matters who drafted the agreement, who are the parties to the agreement, and what precisely is being "settled"? Typically an "agreement for judgment" is the most binding settlement agreement, since the agreement becomes an order of the court once it is approved by the presiding judge. However, you have to already be in court (i.e., sue or be sued) to get the benefit of that. Was there a lawsuit filed or a lawsuit threatened?
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
