There’s no one in the professional realm whom you need to be able to trust and rely on more than your business partners.

- Disagreements over sale of the partnership
- Overreaching by executive leadership
- Breach of fiduciary duty
Prevent lawsuits before conflict arises by creating a reliable Illinois partnership agreement
When two or more people enter into business together in Illinois, they are considered to be a partnership. This partnership exists whether or not those involved agree to the terms of their partnership in a formal legal agreement. Unfortunately, many partners discover the benefits granted by a written partnership agreement only after they’re facing personal liability for a debt or are in a dispute over how to operate their business.
The desire to create a written agreement outlining the terms of your partnership need not indicate a lack of trust in your partner, but simply a desire that both you and your partner enter into your new business endeavor on the same page about how you intend to manage loss, profit, and partner disputes.
