In a general partnership all the partners are personally liable for the partnership debts. In a limited partnership, limited partners are not liable for the partnership's debts beyond the funds they contribute to the partnership.
Ing to Section 30 of the LLP Act 2008, if a partner of an LLP commits fraud, the partner can be held personally liable for the fraudulent acts. This means that the aggrieved party can pursue the partner's personal assets to recover losses incurred due to the fraud.
Proof of knowledge and intent – proof, for example, that the subject knew that a document was forged and submitted it with the intent to defraud another party – is an essential element in all fraud and corruption cases: there are no accidental frauds or unintentional bribes.
Essentially, the three elements of the Fraud Triangle are: Opportunity, Pressure (also known as incentive or motivation) and Rationalization (sometimes called justification or attitude). For fraud to occur, all three elements must be present.
Consult with an Attorney: If attempts to resolve the situation through communication and agreement review fail, consult with an experienced business attorney. They can evaluate the specifics of your partnership agreement and advise you on the appropriate legal actions you can take to protect your interests.
Communicate: If you feel safe doing so, consider discussing your concerns directly with your partner. Be calm and professional, and present your evidence. Sometimes, misunderstandings can be resolved through open communication. Review Your Agreements: Look over any partnership agreements or contracts you have in place.
A limitation of liability clause is a provision within a contract that caps the amount of damages one party can claim from the other in case of a breach or other legal issue. This clause is designed to limit the financial exposure of one or both parties, thereby reducing the risk of excessive financial loss.
Codified as a statutory exception, there is no privilege of attorney-client communication if the attorney's legal services were sought or obtained to enable or aid anyone to commit or plan to commit what the client knew or reasonably should have known to be a crime or fraud.
