A case like this would be about 4 months (570 hours) or so of billable work by a good lawyer @ $350/hr or so.

Good lawyers cost quite a bit more than $350 an hour. Many of the "top" law firms charge north of $1000 an hour these days, below that $500-600/hour for a good quality lawyer is about what I'd expect. Fairly insane but it's one of those things where if losing is more painful than that price, you have no choice.
