One thing that I was taught as a general rule is that when you go to your partner for help, you ask a question that will have a YES or NO answer.
Was the foot on the base?
Do you have a tag?
Did she bobble the ball?
By doing this, you are not asking for an opinion on your judgment, you are asking for a missing "piece of the puzzle" necessary to make that judgement

Agree, as specific as possible.
Also, the partner should say nothing until asked and only what is asked.
Also, just umpires in the conversation.
