What Is a Family Limited Partnership?
Family limited partnerships are a form of trust that is established by an individual or married couple (named the general partners) that can then grant limited partnership to children or other family successors. These partnerships can help avoid extensive taxes on estates or gifting, and seamlessly move the estate and assets into control of the successor, thus avoiding probate.
There are additional benefits to obtaining an FLP, including:
- Protecting the assets named in the FLP from the partner’s creditors
- Assets can be efficiently divided among family members
- Allowing businesses to remain fully operational while training future generations for takeover of the business
- Limiting the complications of business inheritance and partnerships
