Notice of Partnership Withdrawal

A Notice of Withdrawal from Partnership is used to withdraw as a partner in a partnership.

If you want to withdraw from a business partnership, it is necessary to draft a written Notice of Withdrawal from Partnership and serve it to the remaining partners. Partnerships are organized on the state level in the United States, and all states require a notice for this endeavor.

However, most states don't specify how the notice should look. It can be as simple as a formal business letter just so long as the intention is clear to all.

What Is a Notice of Withdrawal from Partnership?

There are two major types of withdrawals from a partnership: voluntary and involuntary. A voluntary partnership withdrawal is when a partner decides on their terms to get out of the partnership. For example, when it is time to retire. The withdrawing partner would be responsible for creating the Notice of Withdrawal from Partnership.

As for involuntary withdrawals, this happens when one partner is forced out of a partnership, whether they like it or not. In this case, the rest of the partners would create and serve the Notice of Withdrawal from Partnership.
