Unlimited liability occurs when the owners of a business are personally responsible for all debts and obligations of the organization. This means that if the business incurs debt or faces lawsuits, the owners' personal assets, such as homes and savings, can be at risk. This is a significant concern for sole proprietorships and general partnerships, as it can deter potential investors and increase financial risk for the owners.
