About this document

This agreement is suitable for any LLP requirement. It is assumed that all partners will be active in the business.

The document is comprehensive, and includes many options. It is structured so that you can take an option, or edit to suit your particular requirements.

For example, if your business is in science, technology or creative work, you will appreciate the very full provisions for management and protection of established and new intellectual property rights, new inventions, and derived products.

If an option is not relevant, you can easily reduce these to produce a document to your exact requirements.

The law relating to this LLP agreement

The Limited Liability Partnership Act 2000 provides the structural framework for this agreement. Within that framework, you are free to make whatever arrangements you like, subject to normal contract law. This gives you great freedom, which is reflected in the many suggestions given in this agreement.

I had never used Net Lawman before and was wary of being scammed, so read round your site carefully - all very reassuring and great service delivered.
All documentation is in plain English as promised + easy to amend as well as being legally accurate and useful to us. This service has probably saved us £1000 in legal fees.

I would definitely recommend to others for the above reasons
