🎥 How to Avoid Partnership Disputes
Your fast guide to smart, drama-free partnerships

👉 LLCs get the spotlight, but a partnership might be your better bet... if you do it right.

💡 Why it matters:
Disputes can wreck your business. A solid partnership agreement protects you before trouble hits.

📌 5 key moves to avoid chaos:

  1. Write it down:
    Draft a clear partnership agreement (don’t default to state rules).

  2. Spell out the big stuff:
    â–ª Ownership shares
    â–ª Profit + loss splits
    â–ª Decision-making rules
    â–ª Dispute resolution
    â–ª Exit plans

  3. Talk it out:
    Early. Often. Clearly. Transparency builds trust.

  4. Plan for conflict:
    Use ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution) ~ think mediation over messy lawsuits.

  5. Future-proof it:
    Cover life events like death, divorce, and illness. Don't let an ex become a surprise co-owner. 😬

🧠 Pro tip:
Involve a lawyer early. Fixing legal messes later costs way more 💸.

✅ Smart partnerships start with smart planning.
