Louisiana Partnerships Detailed Guide

• Partnerships in Louisiana are legal structures that allow two or more persons to come together and jointly operate a business. These partnerships are governed by Louisiana partnership laws and require the completion of specific forms to establish their existence.

• There are several main types of Partnerships Louisiana forms that individuals can choose based on their business needs and goals:

  • 1. General Partnership (GP): This is the simplest form of partnership where all partners share equal rights and responsibilities. Each partner has unlimited liability for the partnership's debts and obligations.

  • 2. Limited Partnership (LP): In an LP, there are general partners who have unlimited liability and limited partners who have limited liability. Limited partners are not actively involved in the management of the partnership.

  • 3. Limited Liability Partnership (LLP): Laps provide limited liability protection to all partners, similar to a corporation. This form is often preferred by professional service providers, such as lawyers or accountants.

  • 4. Limited Liability Limited Partnership (LL LP): Helps combine the features of an LP and an LLP, offering limited liability to both general and limited partners. This form is commonly used in real estate ventures.
