A general partnership comes into existence automatically whenever two or more people own and operate a business together and don’t form another type of business entity such as a corporation or limited liability company. In other words, partnerships are the default business form for businesses with multiple owners.
Partnerships ordinarily don’t last forever. It’s always best for you to enter into a written partnership agreement that, among other things, establishes what type of actions or events will terminate the partnership and what will happen upon termination. However, written agreements are not required to enter into a partnership; nor are any particular provisions, including termination provisions, required in written partnership agreements. If your partnership lacks a written agreement, or your agreement doesn’t address termination, your state partnership law will govern. But you and your fellow partners can always agree among yourselves not to follow your state law default partnership rules.
