Who among the following cannot serve as a witness for a person unable to sign?

  1. A disinterested third party with 1 witness

  2. A family member and a friend

  3. A disinterested third party with 2 disinterested witnesses

  4. A lawyer with 1 witness

The correct answer is: A disinterested third party with 2 disinterested witnesses

A disinterested third party with 2 disinterested witnesses cannot serve as a witness for a person unable to sign. This is because a disinterested third party is not personally connected to the individual and therefore may not be able to accurately attest to the person's inability to sign. Additionally, having two disinterested witnesses provides a higher level of validity and credibility to the witness's testimony. Options A and B may not be the most reliable witnesses due to their personal relationship with the individual. Option D, while a lawyer is a professional, may also have a personal relationship with the individual and therefore may not be considered a completely unbiased witness.
