I hire a firm to do this for me, and it ends up making the .law
domain cost $500 to set up (and verify your documents) and
$100 a year thereafter (to re-verify). Costly, but as a result, we
guarantee accuracy.

Or, perhaps I specify any number of international firms who
do verification and auditing as their key business, and state that
a letter from them will suffice (and keep my costs low).

Hypothetically, of course - I have no desire to run .law!

Yes, as a matter of fact, I do, since my wife and I like to take cruises.

The answer is the same: they pay people to do this, and I end up
paying the cost in my fare.
