Operating agreements set forth the terms and rules governing how a limited liability company (LLC) must operate and transact business. Having an operating agreement in place is crucial to the successful operation of your LLC and prevents the state's default LLC rules from controlling the company.
An operating agreement also helps to protect the personal liability of each member of the LLC and is thus one of the most important documents your company possesses. Once signed by all members, it is the law of the company and does not need to be filed with the state to be considered binding.
A partnership agreement is a critical document that explicitly details how a business is to operate, as well as the roles and responsibilities of each partner. Any business with two or more partners needs to have a well-thought-out partnership agreement so the partners have a clear understanding of their obligations and rights regarding profit and loss.
A partnership agreement also helps avoid potential problems and provides a means for resolving disputes. Businesses without an agreement will risk facing crippling disputes and losing time and money thanks to inefficient dispute resolution methods.
An experienced partnership attorney can be likened to an insurance policy against the many problems that arise during the course of business. These same problems are what cut into a company's profits and productivity and ultimately lead to substantial liability.
With a partnership attorney working with you from the beginning, you get a professional who can effectively contemplate the potential disputes you are likely to face in your partnership and take preemptive action to avoid problems.
To be certain, many executives and other business professionals understand the problems they may face down the line. However, an attorney dedicates their every effort toward avoiding these problems by using skillful contract planning and formation to protect the rights of each partner. This saves countless hours and millions of dollars in litigation costs.

I can't say enough great things about Hunter and Andrew and the Sequoia team. We purchased a small business, and they were efficient, knowledgeable, and direct with their feedback about the deal and its structure and available when we needed them. We hope to do many more transactions with Hunter and Andrew, and the team. If you're looking for great counsel for a business transaction (and I'm sure any other matter they'd represent) - you'll be in great hands working with Sequoia. Bravo!

Partnership agreements and operating agreements do the same thing: They define the rights and responsibilities of members of the business relating to profit, loss, and more. However, operating agreements are used in LLCs, whereas partnership agreements are used in partnerships.
The main clauses include:
Closing the business does not terminate a partner's limited liability instantly. A partner may still face liability for past business actions if the statute of limitations has not yet elapsed.
