A limited liability partnership (LLP) is a type of general partnership that most states now permit. There is a very important distinction, however, between an LLP and an LLC; in an LLP, the partners are not liable for the debts of the partnership. However, they are liable for their own misdeeds, just as if they were a member of an LLC or a shareholder of a corporation.
