What must witnesses of a disinterested third party be?

  1. Licensed attorneys

  2. Disinterested third parties

  3. Family members

  4. Named in the document

The correct answer is: Disinterested third parties

Witnesses of a disinterested third party must be a neutral party who has no financial interest in the matter at hand. This disinterest ensures that the witness is impartial and can provide an unbiased account of the events witnessed. Choosing licensed attorneys or family members as witnesses may introduce bias or conflict of interest. Choosing someone who is named in the document may also introduce bias, as they may have a stake in the outcome of the document. Therefore, B is the best choice for a witness of a disinterested third party.
