Richard Meyer and two friends from law school recently formed Meyer and Associates as a limited liability

Question:

Richard Meyer and two friends from law school recently formed Meyer and Associates as a limited liability partnership (LLP). Income from the partnership will be split equally among the partners.

After examining relevant authority, explain how you would advise Meyer and Associates on this matter?
