When two or more individuals become the owners of a for-profit business, it is not wise to rely on a handshake or spoken understanding. Formalizing your partnership arrangement in writing is vitally important to the success and profitability of a business. By agreeing on the terms of the partnership, and putting that agreement explicitly into writing, you are minimizing the chance of future confusion, conflict, and crisis and taking critical steps towards ensuring the smooth operation of your business.

By formalizing the particulars involved in the operation of your business from the outset-determining a myriad of crucial issues ranging from the division of work to profit sharing to conflict resolution to what happens in case of dissolution of the partnership-you are taking the steps necessary towards avoiding communication break-downs and setting a strong foundation for your business and your business relationship.

If you and your business partners do not use a Partnership Agreement, you will not only be putting yourself at a disadvantage in dealing with disputes when they arise, but you are risking misunderstandings which may then erupt into full-blown legal actions, which carry with them often devastatingly exorbitant costs, not to mention time, effort, hassle, and emotional and mental exhaustion.

Our attorney-prepared Kansas Partnership Agreement allows you to structure your partnership relationship in a way that best suits your business and preserves your rights. Moreover, as every state has specific guidelines governing such Partnership Agreements, you will need a form that is compliant with the laws of Kansas.

This packet identifies and explains many key elements in drafting this document; some of the important provisions incorporated herein include the following:
  • Identification of Fundamentals: Ranging from identifying the name of the business to the identification of the principal place of business to providing the residence of the business for legal purposes.
  • Monetary Matters: Identifying the structure of how profits and losses will be distributed among the partners.

Do Not Use If:

  • โ€“ If the partnership is informal and does not involve significant financial investment or risk, a written agreement may not be necessary. In such cases, a simple verbal understanding may suffice.
  • โ€“ For partnerships that are intended to be temporary or project-based, a more informal agreement may be more suitable. This form is designed for long-term business relationships and may not fit short-term arrangements.
  • โ€“ In situations where partners have vastly different expectations or are unwilling to communicate openly, drafting a Partnership Agreement may not be effective. It requires a mutual understanding and willingness to collaborate.
  • โ€“ If one or more partners are not legally capable of entering into a contract, such as minors or individuals declared mentally incompetent, this form cannot be used. Legal capacity is essential for any binding agreement.
