In a limited partnership, what is each partner's liability?

How do I create a limited partnership?
You'll need to take some steps to register your LP with your state, but we'll help you through them—from clearing your LP's name to the filing of your certificate. It's also a good idea to create a limited partnership agreement, which spells out details of the partnership.
