Overview

CaseMark's FLP Agreement Drafter uses AI to generate comprehensive Family Limited Partnership agreements designed for estate planning and intergenerational wealth transfer. The tool produces IRS-enforceable documents that articulate legitimate business purposes, structure proper GP/LP interests, and incorporate valuation discount provisions — all extracted and assembled from your uploaded client documents in a fraction of the time manual drafting requires.

Drafting Family Limited Partnership agreements is one of the most complex tasks in estate planning. Attorneys must navigate IRS enforceability requirements under IRC §2036, structure GP/LP interests correctly, articulate legitimate business purposes, and incorporate detailed asset inventories and family information — all while ensuring the document withstands potential audit scrutiny. This process typically consumes many billable hours and carries significant compliance risk.

CaseMark automates FLP agreement drafting by analyzing your uploaded estate planning documents, asset inventories, and family details to produce a comprehensive, IRS-compliant partnership agreement. The AI structures legitimate business purpose clauses, proper interest allocations, transfer restrictions, and valuation discount provisions — delivering a polished first draft that attorneys can review and customize with confidence.
