Illinois § 35

§ 35.

Professional relationship and liability; rights and obligations pertaining to communications. (a) Nothing contained in this Act shall be interpreted to abolish, repeal, modify, restrict, or limit the law in effect in this State on the effective date of this Act that is applicable to the professional relationship and liabilities between the person furnishing the professional services and the person receiving such professional services or the law that is applicable to the standards for professional conduct. Any manager, member, agent, or employee of a professional limited liability company shall remain personally and fully liable and accountable for any negligent or wrongful acts or misconduct committed by him or her or by any person under his or her direct supervision and control while rendering professional services on behalf of the professional limited liability company. However, a professional limited liability company shall have no greater liability for the conduct of its agents than any other limited liability company organized under the Limited Liability Company Act. A professional limited liability company shall be liable up to the full value of its property for any negligence or wrongful acts or misconduct committed by any of its managers, members, agents, or employees while they are engaged in the rendering of professional services on behalf of the professional limited liability company. (b) All rights and obligations pertaining to communications made to or information received by any qualified person or the advice he or she gives on such communications or information, shall be extended to the professional limited liability company of which he or she is a manager, member, agent, or employee, and to the professional limited liability company's managers, members, agents, and employees.
