Partnership agreement can be described as a voluntary contract between two or more parties towards the accomplishment of a mutual goal or objective. In most cases, a partnership agreement is the legal and written agreement between partners in a business. However, in some situations, a partnership agreement is an oral agreement where terms are implied upon the parties with no written document. Notably, the oral partnership agreement is still enforceable like the written one despite the absence of a written document. This implies that a partnership agreement does not necessarily need to be written in order to be effective. One of the most important considerations to make when entering an oral partnership agreement is how any conflicts would be resolved while ensuring each party fulfills his/her respective role in the contract. For instance, a partner is disputing an already established partnership agreement whose terms are still the same but there is no written document.

Therefore, my first step in resolving the dispute from my partner in the contract is to examine the governance rules set out when making partnership agreement. As previously mentioned, there rules will provide the basis for understanding the nature of the dispute and the plan of actions to resolve it. If there were no governance rules in the partnership agreement, I would examine the provisions of state law to determine the appropriate course of action for resolving the dispute. During these considerations, the main aim of examining the partnership's governance rules or provisions of state law would be to resolve the conflict in a manner that is beneficial for both partners.

Plan of Action:
