Commonly asked questions on partnership agreements.
A partnership agreement dictates all the duties and obligations between you and your business partners. As a result, we often get many questions regarding partnership agreements. Below, our partnership agreements solicitors in London and Brighton have answered some of the most commonly asked questions regarding the topic.
1. What is a partnership agreement?
A partnership agreement, also known as a partnership contract, is a legally binding document. The agreement establishes the rights and responsibilities of each partner and how they split profits and losses.
The value of having a written partnership agreement is that it lays out all the rules, responsibilities, and financial details of a business partnership. Furthermore, the agreement reduces the possibility of any future disputes because all partners have agreed to the terms and conditions.
In the event of any disputes, it’s a simple case of referring back to the document, minimising any arguments and lengthy discussions.
2. Are partnership agreements legally binding?
All partners who have signed a partnership contract have entered into a legally binding agreement. The partnership agreement will include the roles and responsibilities of the partners. However, in most cases, a partner will be able to exit or dissolve a partnership, providing they concede with the terms agreed within the partnership agreement.
3. When should a partnership agreement be formed?
Partners will form an agreement document to give all parties precise details of their partnership. For example, this might involve their capital involved, their rights and obligations and rules of engagement in the event of a dispute or dissolution.
4. How long does it take to draft or review a partnership agreement?
A simple partnership agreement can take as little as 1 to 2 weeks to be drafted, from initial consultation to you receiving the first draft.
If the agreement is particularly complex, you can expect the time frame to increase to 2 to 4 weeks.
5. How much does it cost to draft or review a partnership agreement?
Each partnership agreement case is different, which is why we offer an untimed initial consultation to understand the complexity of the agreement you desire. Agreements that include multiple partners/businesses, or agreements that require several layers of protection and dispute resolution for partners, will typically increase costs.
Within an initial consultation, our solicitors will be in a position to provide a more precise estimate of how much your agreement case will cost.
In this initial consultation, our solicitors guarantee:
- Unlimited time to discuss the details of your partnership agreement and ask any questions you may have
- An overview of your legal standpoint and available options
- A clear time and fee estimate for your partnership agreement.
