Partnership agreement

Templates › Confidentiality & Legal

A partnership agreement sets the terms for two or more people running a business together — what each partner contributes, how profits and losses are split, who decides what, and what happens if a partner leaves or the partnership ends.

When to use it

Use this the moment you start a business with someone else, before any money changes hands or decisions get made — the agreement that's easiest to write is the one drafted before a disagreement, not after.

What's typically included

• Formation and purpose
• Contributions
• Profit and loss allocation
• Management and decision-making
• Partner duties
• Withdrawal and dissociation
