What is an LLC partnership?

A partnership is a business that two or more people own together. Each partner contributes to the financial and/or operational side of the company, and in return, they’re also personally responsible for some or all of the profit and losses. So why would you form an LLC partnership over, say, a limited partnership?

What are the different types of partnership?

A partnership consists of two or more persons or entities doing business together. There are three main types of partnership: general, limited, and limited liability. Partnerships must file with the state in which they do business and are governed mostly by state laws. Each partner invests in the business and shares in its profits and losses.

What is the difference between a corporation and a partnership?

Unlike the corporation, the partnership is regarded merely as an aggregation of persons doing business under a common name and not as a legal entity separate and apart from its shareholders. The implication of this is that the earnings of the partnership will be taxed only as personal earnings of the partners.
