A limited partnership is a partnership formed by two or more persons under the laws of Michigan and having one or more general partners and one or more limited partners. The general partners are liable for all the debts and obligations of the firm, while limited partners are responsible only for the debts and obligations of the amount that they contributed. A limited partnership must have at least one general partner and one limited partner. One person may not form a limited partnership by being designated as the only limited and general partner.
