A partnership agreement is a legal document that governs how a business partnership will operate. It covers how decisions are made, how profits and losses are shared, what happens if a partner leaves, and the responsibilities of each partner.

Used when two or more people go into business together as a general partnership or limited partnership. Without a written agreement, partnerships are governed by state default rules which may not match the partners' intentions.
