Except as provided in this section, ss. 180.1901 to 180.1921 do not
alter any contract, tort or other legal relationship between a person receiving professional services and one or more persons who
are licensed, certified or registered to render those professional
services and who are shareholders, directors, officers or employees in the same service corporation. A shareholder, director, officer or employee of a service corporation is not personally liable
for the debts or other contractual obligations of the service corporation nor for the omissions, negligence, wrongful acts, misconduct and malpractice of any person who is not under his or her actual supervision and control in the specific activity in which the
omissions, negligence, wrongful acts, misconduct and malpractice occurred. A service corporation may charge for the services
of its shareholders, directors, officers, employees or agents, may
collect such charges and may compensate those who render such
personal services. Nothing in this section shall affect any of the
following:
(1) The liability of a service corporation for the omissions,
negligence, wrongful acts, misconduct and malpractice of a
shareholder, director, officer or employee while the person, on
behalf of the service corporation, provides professional services.
(2) The personal liability of a shareholder, director, officer or
employee of a service corporation for his or her own omissions,
negligence, wrongful acts, misconduct and malpractice and for
the omissions, negligence, wrongful acts, misconduct and malpractice of any person acting under his or her actual supervision
and control in the specific activity in which the omissions, negligence, wrongful acts, misconduct and malpractice occurred.
