A family limited partnership (FLP) is a business entity used to manage family property.
Generally speaking, FLPs are estate planning instruments designed to minimize the impact of estate and gift taxes, and to shelter assets from creditors.
In a typical FLP, the older generation puts money or property into the FLP.
Some family members are named general partners, which means that they are responsible for managing and preserving the FLP.
Other family members are named limited partners.
Limited partners have no control over the operations of the FLP, but they do own important rights.
