Forming an LP or LLP in Delaware

Forming a Limited Partnership in Delaware

A Limited Partnership is formed by one or more General Partners and at least one or more Limited Partners. General Partners control and manage the partnership with joint and several liabilities of all actions, debts and obligations. The Limited Partners are generally investors and do not participate in any way with the management of the business. The Limited Partners have limited liability – meaning no liability for the company’s debts, obligations, or actions. Their liability is limited to the amount they have invested.

Forming a Limited Liability Partnership in Delaware

A Limited Liability Partnership is often formed by licensed professionals such as a group of attorneys, accountants, or physicians because they generally protect each individual partner from liability for the professional malpractice of all other partners. However, any group of two or more people can form an LLP in Delaware.
