I mean, I don't have to do it alone. There's this thing called "the law" that's put in a little work on this :)

Fair enough; from a legal framework that's a highly practical way to move forward. I don't think many people like to point at the current status quo, with all its flaws, and immediately think "the courts will help me!"; but you did mention you are a lawyer and I respect that you are working in the bounds of what is possible rather than what is ideal.
