It means that the personal property of the partners cannot be attached or used for paying off the debts and liabilities of the LLB However, in Partnership firm the liability of partners is unlimited and it is joint and several. It means in the case of insolvency. Of the firm personal property of the partners are attached and used to pay off the debts of the firm
