Legal entity

Limited liability limited partnership (LLLP)

An LP variant some states recognize that also limits general-partner liability. Not available everywhere.

Legal vs tax
Only where state statute supports it. Federal tax still typically partnership.
Liability
Intended to limit even the general partner — confirm the formation state's statute, not a blog summary.
Default federal tax
partnership
Other federal options
Formation / maintenance
State-specific. Do not assume your formation state offers LLLP.
Public-record notes
Same public-filing pattern as LPs in states that allow the form.
Succession
Same family as LP agreements; extra care because statutes differ.
Investor fit
Niche. Counsel should confirm recognition if you operate across states.
