Accountants' liability

mtbcThis morning I heard a peculiar news story about how accountants should be, or perhaps are being, made liable for devising and suggesting tax evasion schemes, because their customers are caught and fined but the accountant gets off scot-free.
I would have naively thought that if my accountant led me into an illegal scheme for which I were fined then, regardless of their service's terms and conditions, I ought to be able to sue the pants off them. Is this not the case?
