In a general partnership, all partners share joint and full responsibility for the financial dealings of the partnership, meaning that if the partnership is sued, the general partners are financially responsible. A limited partnership has both general partners and limited partners. The limited partners are insulated from a majority of financial responsibilities that fall on the general partner.
