partnership agreements

Joint venture documents

Partnership agreements are legal contracts that establish the terms of a business partnership—defining each partner's contributions, responsibilities, profit shares, and decision-making authority.

They typically address what happens if a partner wants to leave or if disputes arise.

The partnership agreement required unanimous consent for major purchases.

Without one, partnerships default to state law, which rarely reflects what partners actually intend.
