Limited Partnerships and other Joint Venture Arrangements

At McCaw Lewis, we provide expert legal advice on limited partnerships and other joint venture arrangements, supporting businesses, investors, Māori entities, and organisations across Waikato and New Zealand to collaborate and grow. Our Commercial Law team is experienced in structuring, negotiating, and documenting joint ventures and limited partnerships for a wide range of commercial, farming, and investment projects.

Limited partnerships are a popular structure for joint business ventures, offering potential flexibility and tax advantages. We advise on the formation, registration, and operation of limited partnerships, ensuring your interests are protected and your arrangements are legally sound.

More generally, joint ventures allow two or more parties to pool resources, share risks, and pursue common goals while maintaining their separate identities. We assist clients with drafting clear joint venture agreements that define roles, responsibilities, profit-sharing, decision-making, and exit strategies. Our lawyers ensure compliance with New Zealand law and help resolve any disputes that may arise during the partnership’s lifetime.

Our team has particular expertise in supporting Māori organisations and post-settlement governance entities, helping structure joint ventures and limited partnerships that align with tikanga Māori and deliver long-term benefits for iwi and hapū.

McCaw Lewis is committed to delivering practical, strategic advice that empowers you to make informed decisions about collaborative business arrangements. We work closely with other specialist teams within the firm to offer comprehensive support for all your commercial law needs, including governance, asset protection, and dispute resolution.
