True

In the context of negligence, professionals are held to a higher standard of care compared to a "regular" person. This means that professionals, such as doctors, lawyers, and accountants, are expected to perform their services with the level of skill and care that is reasonably expected of someone with their qualifications and expertise. This is often referred to as the "reasonable professional standard." If a professional fails to meet this higher standard and their negligence results in harm, they may be held liable for malpractice or professional negligence.
