Built for
Two or more partners
Best when
Flexibility matters more than equity
Is an LLP
right for you?
Pick it when partners want protection and a written rulebook, without the ongoing weight of a company.
Two or more partners
Profit shares, duties and decision rights are agreed between you, not fixed by a template.
Liability should stay limited
Partners are protected beyond the contribution they have agreed to bring in.
You want lighter annual work
No statutory audit until turnover or contribution crosses the prescribed thresholds.
No equity raise planned
Revenue, profits or debt fund the business rather than priced investment rounds.
LLP
Best when partners write their own rules.
It is the wrong pick if you plan to raise equity.
Venture investors and stock options need a company, so an LLP would have to be converted first. Late LLP filings also carry a per-day penalty, and the agreement must be filed within 30 days of incorporation.
What you receive,
ready to use.
We reserve the name, obtain designated partner identification, file the incorporation application and draft the LLP agreement that governs how you and your partners share profits, duties and decisions.
