Law firm registration

Dear Firends

I am an Advocate and starting a Law firm with 2 other Lawyers friends very soon. The Property is owned by A solely and A has invited B and C to start law firm but the B and C are not bringing any capital with them though they are getting only the knowledge. Now as the share of A is little bit higher than B and C as Building, Capital and Misc. Expennses are borne by A only. Now as we are registering an LLP firm which has every partners have limited Liability. I am confused that what would be Ideal Profit Sharing Ratio between the 3 or more Partners considering the Above mentioned example.

 

Regards

As already rightly advised let them be the sleeping partners as they do not have any stake at the LLP firm.

prakash panjabi (proprietor)     15 November 2011

The two other proposed partners heing lawyers will be actively involved in firm. Therefore they cannot be sleeping partners. It will be ideal to claim rent on property and expenses before sharing if profit (if in equal ratio) or to allot higher profit ratio to partner bringing in capital.

You may execute a seperate agreement or underatanding with the other partners based upon profit sharing depending upon the business they bring in the firm.

If You have an Idea of Giving your property for office purpose, please maitain that seperately. Fix a Rent for that and see to that u collect the rent every month (even in case u do not have any income that particular month).Secondly do not have any emotional Involvement  with your partners.Friendship and partnership must be treated seperately.All the expenditure occured on establishing the firm must be kept as a whole account.(Furnitures Books etc etc) as soon as your practise picks up ,slowly you have to deduct the amount from their share.Why i am telling this is ....My own experience .Make each and every partner to feel the pain of accountability  towards the Firm.
