Abstract There is often a fine line between medical malpractice and maloccurrance. Physicians need to develop techniques and skills that enhance the patient-physician relationship based on honesty and informed consent. Documentation and proper maintenance of medical records is demanded by the current legal and health care systems. Failure to follow programs which maintain the integrity of patients' records often has negative consequences. The cases discussed illustrate areas in which the neurologist has come into conflict with the legal system.
