"It is not easy to find a lawyer that knows Offshore Asset Protection Trusts, which own a foreign LLC, which owns a USA LLC. Fines could reach $100K if the tax forms are incorrect, or not filed. He was able to review my draft returns and provide memos with required changes (many, many changes), after 1 follow-up everything was basically done other than a few tiny edits. I really appreciated how he worked me in, right in the busiest time of tax season, to ensure there were no errors. Would definitely hire again."

I’m a commercial contracts attorney who helps growing companies get out of contract chaos and into something sustainable. I focus on the agreements that sit at the core of how companies operate—customer contracts, vendor deals, SaaS agreements, and supply and distribution relationships. Before going independent, I worked in private practice and embedded legal roles supporting technology, consumer goods, and manufacturing businesses. That experience shaped a practical, business-first approach to contracts: clear drafting, efficient negotiation, and advice grounded in how companies actually operate. I hold the CIPP/US credential and have completed AI governance training, which informs my work on data, privacy, and AI-adjacent risk terms commonly found in modern commercial agreements. If you want contracts that are clear, balanced, and usable by the people who sign and manage them, that’s where I’m most effective.

Partnership Legal Questions and Answers

Partnership

Limited Liability Partnership Agreement

California

Asked on Sep 25, 2024

What are the advantages and disadvantages of forming a limited liability partnership (LLP) for my business?

I am currently in the process of starting a small business with a partner, and we are considering forming a limited liability partnership (LLP) as our business structure. We have heard that LLPs offer certain benefits such as limited personal liability for partners, but we are also aware that there may be some drawbacks, such as potential tax implications or restrictions on ownership. We would like to understand the advantages and disadvantages of forming an LLP so that we can make an informed decision about the best structure for our business.

Dolan W.

Answered Oct 29, 2024

Hello! There are some advantages to an LLP for sure. The first one is partners in an LLP are generally protected from personal liability for business debts and obligations. Each partner is also shielded from liability for the negligent acts of other partners, which can be a big advantage in professions with potential liability concerns, such as legal or financial services. One of the biggest advantages is tax-related. Similar to a general partnership, an LLP allows profits and losses to pass through to individual partners’ tax returns, avoiding double taxation. This setup can reduce the tax burden compared to a traditional corporation. LLPs also have an easy set-up and are bogged down by dense corporate bylaws like corporations and because certain licensed professions, like law or accounting, are required to operate as LLPs, it adds a sense of credibility and professionalism. The downsides? California limits LLPs primarily to certain licensed professions, such as attorneys, accountants, and architects, as I mentioned above. This restriction may limit your options if your business does not fall into these categories. You may need an LLC if it's not one of those professions. Also, California requires LLPs to pay an annual minimum franchise tax of $800, which may be a burden for smaller operations. If you need money, investors or lenders might prefer the corporate structure, which they view as more stable. Best of luck. We can draft documents like partnership agreements for you. Dolan

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.

Answered Mar 30, 2021

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.

Business Partnership

Maryland

Asked on Mar 21, 2023

Who manages a general partnership?

I am currently in a general partnership with another individual to run a business. While we share equal ownership and responsibility for the business, I am unsure of who has the authority to make management decisions on behalf of the partnership. I would like to seek the guidance of a lawyer to better understand the management structure of a general partnership and ensure that our business is being managed correctly.

O.T. W.

Answered Mar 24, 2023

Your operating agreement should detail who has what responsibilities between the two of you, and it should establish checks and balances for each of your roles.

Assignment Of Partnership Interest

Texas

Asked on Sep 15, 2024

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.

Answered Sep 27, 2024

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.

Partnership Agreement

Texas

Asked on Nov 18, 2023

How to ensure clarity in a partnership agreement?

I am looking to form a partnership with another individual. We are both going to be investing in the same business and want to ensure that our interests are well protected. We have drafted a partnership agreement but are not sure if it is clear enough. We want to make sure that there are no misunderstandings between us and that our interests are clearly defined. We need help to make sure that the partnership agreement is clear and unambiguous.

Darryl S.

Answered Nov 28, 2023

Having an attorney review the current draft will provide an objective perspective on any gaps or areas lacking clarity in your agreement. Investing a little more upfront will prevent issues later should disputes arise. Please let me know if you need any other specific suggestions on strengthening your partnership agreement.
