Straight answer
How does a partner's exit from the company work?
In a company with an indefinite term, a partner may withdraw by notifying the others at least 60 days in advance. The company is dissolved with respect to that partner, and their share, called haveres, is calculated according to the articles of association. If the articles are silent, the amount is determined in a special balance sheet, with assets and rights, including intangibles, valued at exit price. Without an agreement, an action for partial dissolution of the company can be filed.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
Do I need the other partners' authorization to leave?
In a company with an indefinite term, no. A notice given 60 days in advance is enough.
How is the value of my share calculated?
By the criterion in the articles of association. If there is none, by a special balance sheet (balanço de determinação), with an expert review if there is disagreement.
Am I still responsible for the debts after leaving?
For prior obligations, they may be liable for up to 2 years after the withdrawal is registered (Civil Code, art. 1,032).
Can it be resolved without a lawsuit?
Yes. Many exits end in a quota agreement with an amendment to the articles of association.
