Project Description

In 2025, a business in California sought assistance with drafting a joint venture agreement for a real estate development project. The client aimed to structure the deal among several parties, utilizing funds from a self-directed individual retirement account, a family trust, and an unrelated partner, to effectively establish the joint venture instead of forming a partnership within an LLC. This decision was based on legal advice regarding recourse loans associated with the property and included a plan for a 50% equity buyout from an existing partner. As a result, the client received five proposals from qualified lawyers, with flat fee bids ranging from $325 to $950, all submitted to meet the client's deadline of less than a week.

Forum Questions About Joint Venture Agreement

Joint Venture Agreement

Georgia

Asked on Apr 11, 2023

What are the voting rights in a joint venture?

I am looking to enter into a joint venture with a business partner. We are both making a significant investment of resources and capital, and we want to ensure that we have a clear understanding of the voting rights associated with the venture. We want to make sure that each party's interests are protected and that all decisions are made in a fair and equitable manner.

The voting rights should be based on what the parties determine to be appropriate based on your particular teaming arrangement. You also should consider if there is any voting requirement based on an end-user for the joint venture (e.g., governmental authority may require a majority ownership by one of the joint venturers as well as majority voting rights as in the case of an 8(a) certified entity).

Who's liable for contracts in a joint venture?

I'm a small business owner looking to start a joint venture with another business. We have discussed the terms of the venture and are ready to move forward, but I want to make sure that I understand who is responsible for which contracts. I'm concerned that if either party fails to fulfill their contractual obligations, I need to know who will be held liable.

N'kia N.

Answered May 19, 2023

Typically, liability for each party to a joint venture is determined by the joint venture agreement itself. However, if the joint venture agreement is not sufficient to establish liability or there is no agreement, the law imputes "per capita" (per head) liability. For example, in a joint venture that involves three separate individuals and/or entities, each venturer bears one-third of the total liability. For this reason, joint venturers commonly register a separate entity such as a limited liability company ("LLC"). Hope this helps!
