Explain Section 552 of the Restatement (Second) of Torts

What will be an ideal response?

Section 552 of the Restatement (Second) of Torts provides a broader standard for holding accountants liable to third parties for negligence than the Ultramares doctrine. Under this standard, an accountant is liable for his or her negligence to any member of a limited class of intended users for whose benefit the accountant has been employed to prepare the client's financial statements or to whom the accountant knows the client will supply copies of the financial statements. In other words, the accountant does not have to know the specific name of the third party. Many states have adopted this standard.
