A Limited Liability Partnership is a cross between a partnership and a Limited Company.
The business profits are shared between the partners and they are then taxed on the profits each tax year.
An LLP is a separate legal entity so the partners are not personally liable for any losses and their liability is restricted to the amount of money that they invest in the business.
Partners’ responsibilities and share of the profits are set out in an LLP agreement. ‘Designated members’ have extra responsibilities.

We will prepare the accounts for the business.
We will explain your accounts to you in plain English.
We will ensure that you meet any mandatory reporting requirements and produce financial statements to file at Companies House.

Completing even a simple tax return can be complicated, especially given the ever-changing rules and regulations.
