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.
