It's unfortunate that our legal system is set up in such a way that you would need $24k in legal fees to settle a case like this.

Well, I wasn't really talking about the magnitude of the costs involved. You could certainly argue that a case like this requires too many hours of lawyers' time, or that those hours are overvalued. I don't personally know of any better alternative systems that would be useful to compare against.
