Default Legal Caption needs a way to dynamically create right-paren separator

I've included screenshots of my dilemma so I hopefully well keep this description short.



I want to mail-merge legal documents that have a caption at the top which includes the parties (i.e. plaintiff, defendant). Here's an example of the styling.

It's the right-paren in the center that's giving me trouble because the length of the parties information can vary. As a result, the number of right-parens required varies as well.

I've been able to have some success using tables to get some of the formatting to flow properly but I'm searching for a way to dynamically determine the correct number of right-parens or some sort of auto-fill or default value for every new line within the table row.

Please see the attachments for example of a good result vs. a bad result.

Thanks!
