the LLP is limited liability, and unless in a case of criminal negligence that cannot be broken, so it's difficult to go after individuals. This model depends on working with people you trust not to be criminals, and as I mentioned above works only for relatively small consultancies where everyone can be trusted.

in terms of 'make them untractive to do business with', since the company was restructured in this way we worked with some of the worlds largest investment banks, big telecoms companies, and a ton of other parties that require a lot of paperwork. nobody seemed to mind that we're structured this way or find us unattractive to work with.
