     35-4-404. Responsibility for services. (1) An individual who renders professional services as an employee of a domestic or foreign professional corporation is liable for any negligent or wrongful act or omission in which he personally participates to the same extent as if he had rendered such services as a sole practitioner. An employee of a professional corporation is not liable for the conduct of other employees unless he is at fault in appointing, supervising, or cooperating with them.
     (2) A domestic or foreign professional corporation whose employee performs professional services within the scope of his employment or apparent authority to act for the corporation is liable to the same extent as that employee.
     (3) Except as otherwise provided by statute, the personal liability of a shareholder of a domestic or foreign professional corporation is no greater in any respect than that of a shareholder of a corporation organized under the Montana Business Corporation Act.
