agree  The Misha: This definitely works, as long as we agree that this is not how this would be phrased in a similar document in English (AmEn, that is) where, in terms of the legal cliches in general use, no need to make such a dichotomy usually arises.

capacity vs competence


Explanation:
their legal capacity and competence have been verified
The capacity of natural and juridical persons (legal persons) in general, determines whether they may make binding amendments to their rights, duties and obligations, such as getting married or merging, entering into contracts, making gifts, or writing a valid will.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacity_(law)

And

In United States law, competence concerns the mental capacity of an individual to participate in legal proceedings or transactions, and the mental condition a person must have to be responsible for his or her decisions or acts. Competence is an attribute that is decision specific.
