A quick definition of legally incapacitated person:

A legally incapacitated person is someone who is unable to make responsible decisions or enter into contracts because of a mental or physical impairment, or because of drug or alcohol use. This person may not fully understand what they are doing or saying, and may need help from others to make important decisions.

A more thorough explanation:

A legally incapacitated person is someone who is unable to make responsible personal decisions or enter into contracts due to a temporary or permanent impairment. This impairment can be caused by mental illness, mental deficiency, physical illness or disability, or alcohol or drug use.

Examples of legally incapacitated persons include:

  • An elderly person with dementia who cannot understand or communicate decisions about their finances or healthcare.
  • A person with a severe mental illness who is unable to make decisions about their treatment or living situation.
  • A person with a physical disability that prevents them from signing legal documents or making decisions about their care.
  • A person under the influence of drugs or alcohol who is unable to make rational decisions.

These examples illustrate how a person's impairment can affect their ability to make responsible decisions and enter into contracts. In these situations, a legal guardian or conservator may be appointed to make decisions on behalf of the incapacitated person.
