    b. Roma and Taylor

    Explanation:

    In this case each attorney is liable for his negligence, so Taylor will be liable for not appearing in court.

    Roma is his supervisor, and he will also be liable because he is responsible for Taylor's performance.

    The other attorneys in the firm will not be liable, because there is personal liability. When they are not directly involved in negligence, they will not be liable to Umberto.
