The meaning of 'unenforceable contracts cannot be assailed by third persons' means that a third person cannot profit from a contract that was null and void in the first place. A contract can be considered null and void if it allows for a criminal act, or one party to the contract is a minor. This also means that a third person cannot sue an adult if their child enters into a contract.
Contracts entered by minors are revocable or voidable; the law calls minors infants. Contracts entered into by the mentally infirm are void.
In most legal systems, the only persons generally barred from entering into contracts are:minorsthe insanebankruptsBut each jurisdiction has different laws on this subject.

Contracts are unenforceable for several reasons. Here are a few examples.In many countries, a person under the age of eighteen years is not considered competent to make a contract. It is normally impossible to enforce a contract made against a minor.In the UK, any activity that is not within the law cannot be enforced by a court. Unlicensed gambling, for example, is not against the law but it is not within the law. Therefore, a gambling debt cannot be enforced.In almost all countries, a contract that deals with an illegal activity cannot be enforced. An agreement for one person to steal property in return for a payment from another cannot be enforced although the existence of such a contract may well be used to help prove criminal offences.Note that an unenforceable contract does not mean a contract that is not in writing. Although a verbal contract may be hard to prove, if a court accepts that the contract has been made, it can make a judgment on the contract.
Certain contracts cannot be disaffirmed, such as those involving essential services like healthcare or education, where disaffirmation could disrupt necessary support. Additionally, contracts made by individuals who are legally competent, such as adults, and those that are fully executed (completed) typically cannot be disaffirmed. Contracts related to the sale of real estate also generally cannot be disaffirmed once they are finalized. Lastly, contracts made by minors may be disaffirmed, but those involving necessities, such as food and shelter, cannot be disaffirmed.
Oral contracts can be enforced in Arizona. But the contract cannot violate the statute of frauds which requires certain contracts to be in writing.
Persons who are legally able to give sane and intelligent consent and are legally capable of entering into contracts are generally adults who have reached the age of majority, which is usually 18 years old. They must also be of sound mind, meaning they understand the nature and consequences of their actions. Additionally, they cannot be under the influence of drugs or alcohol when making decisions.
Labor laws cannot be negated by contracts. An employee cannot give up the right to overtime pay or minimum wage.

No, a contract is not valid if one of its terms breaks the law. This is because contracts must be formed for a legal purpose and must comply with the law in order to be enforceable. If a contract includes a term that violates the law, that term is considered void and unenforceable, which may render the entire contract invalid. It is important for contracts to adhere to legal requirements to ensure their validity and enforceability.
