Book excerpt: This is a user-friendly and practical guide for UK practitioners and those managing UK firms on the day-to-day legal issues that arise in the specialist field of partnerships and LLPs. The book is written by three authors: a leading partnership and LLP barrister with many years of litigation experience, a solicitor with specialist expertise in partnership and LLP structures and agreements, and a respected academic in the field. It provides clear and practical guidance on the main issues that arise time and again in UK partnerships and LLPs. While there are many important differences between traditional partnerships and LLPs, the practical issues that they face are often similar, and the book therefore tackle both areas.

Subjects covered include: the legal nature and characteristics of partnerships and LLPs * factors influencing choice of legal entity * the essential elements of partnership and members' agreements * management structures including management boards and partnership councils * conduct of meetings * partnership/LLP property and profits and losses * accounts, taxation, and audit * partner and member retirements and expulsions * duties of partners and members * Equality Act implications * suspension and garden leave * personal liability issues * dissolution and winding-up * goodwill * disputes: mediation, arbitration, and court proceedings * mergers, acquisitions, and conversions.

Download or read book A Practical Guide to Divorce and Farming in Scotland written by Lucia Clark and published by . This book was released on 2022-01-31 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the particular legal and practical problems arising from farming divorce in Scotland. Topics covered include the tricky issues of whether the farm business and the farmland fall within the definition of "matrimonial property" or not; the nuances of partnership law and consideration of Scottish case law on farming partnerships; and the particular way in which arguments for unequal sharing often arise in farming cases, whether due to source of funds, economic disadvantage or lack of resources. Intended as a practical guide, there are suggestions for information gathering at the first meeting; instruction of specialist valuers; and a summary of unique assets to farm businesses. The book also considers the impact of inter-generational dynamics on farming divorce, and when preventative measures such as pre-nuptial or partnership agreements might be useful. The book is aimed primarily towards Scottish family law practitioners, but is also likely to be of interest to farming advisers and farm accountants, who either find themselves with divorcing clients or who wish to avoid pitfalls for their clients on a future separation.

Download or read book Partnership Law written by Michael Twomey and published by Bloomsbury Professional. This book was released on 2000-12-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by an experienced practitioner, this is the definitive guide to the law of partnership in Ireland. Comprehensive and highly detailed, it includes practitioner-orientated chapters on disputes between partners, litigation by and against partnerships and a commentary on each of the clauses of a typical partnership agreement. Few areas of law are as similar throughout the common law world as partnership law. This is because both the Partnership Act 1890 and the Limited Partnerships Act 1907 are to be found almost unchanged in England & Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, America and Canada. This important book analyses not only Irish, English and Scottish partnership cases, but also the rich vein of partnership cases to be found in other common law jurisdictions, and explains how these cases impact upon Irish law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many professionals will be familiar with partnerships and how they work but few will truly understand the nuances and complexities of a farming partnership. In the past this may not have mattered but with high values of land and an increasingly elderly farming population, the risk levels for advising in this area of the law have increased significantly.

All farming partnerships are tailor-made to meet the specific circumstances of the client. The purpose of this book is to give an overview, with practical examples, of the main issues that you may come across. Whilst it does not have the scope to consider all the case law in relation to partnerships in detail, it does provide the main points, guidelines and strategies to help and support all those involved in advising on farming partnerships.
