What this usually involves

Without a written partnership agreement the Partnership Act 1890 applies, which often produces outcomes none of the partners intended.

  • Establishing what the partnership terms actually are
  • Accounting for capital, profits and goodwill
  • Dealing with premises, staff and ongoing clients

Common questions

What if we never signed an agreement?
Default statutory rules apply, including equal profit shares and dissolution on notice by any partner.
Who keeps the clients?
That depends on any restrictive covenants and how goodwill is accounted for on dissolution.
