    Carol is personally liable for her mistake, and not Dave. Carol was negligent while Dave was not negligent.

    Explanation:

    Limited liability partnerships offer the advantage of being able to structure the business as a general partnership but liability is not shared by the partners. This is very important specially for some specific trades like accounting, medicine, law, engineering, etc., were liability can be a very serious issue that ranges form small fines to hefty lawsuits.
