Disbarment is a serious consequence in both American and Brazilian legal systems, handled by respective bar associations (State Bar in the US, Ordem dos Advogados do Brasil). In Brazil, this process is overseen by the OAB (Ordem dos Advogados do Brasil), which maintains professional standards and ethics. It represents the most severe disciplinary action a lawyer can face and is relatively rare, reserved for serious violations of professional conduct.
