A Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) is a separate legal entity, which, unlike other forms of partnership, provides limited liability to the partners. The main benefit of this structure is that members are not personally responsible for the debts of the business.
Our experts at Branch Austin McCormick can advise you on which structure works best for your business, and if you choose the LLP model, we can draft a limited liability partnership agreement for you.
The LLP structure works well for individuals who want to do business together.
Typically, that’s professionals such as lawyers, accountants, consultants, and doctors.
You might also consider the LLP structure for a joint venture, where the parties are coming together for a long term project. It allows for more organisational flexibility than limited companies, because the members can tailor the profit-sharing arrangements in the LLP agreement.
Be aware however, that this structure is not suitable if you’re in business on your own, or you want to grow your business by raising capital through issuing shares.
