Under a sole proprietorship, you are personally responsible for all debts of your business. Under a general partnership, the same holds true. Under a limited liability partnership, you are separated from the obligations of the company, including being sued, much like a corporation.

LLP's require more paperwork but in my opinion are worth it because of the legal separation of business debts from personal worth.
