Default legal recognition / legally recognized

Hello, everyone.
I would like to ask you about more informal, shorter and simpler expressions
for 'legal recognition' / 'legally recognized'.

(eg.) The same sex couples want to be legally recognized by the government.

= The same sex couples want a legal recognition by the government.

I would like to know if there is any other expression for 'legal recognition'
or 'legally recognized'.
More informal, shorter and simpler expressions are preferable.

I made following examples.

1:The same sex couples want to meet law.

2:The same sex couple want to be with law.

3:The same sex couples want to live with law.

4:The same sex couples want to go together with law.

5:The same sex couples want a legal credit.

6:The same sex couples want to a legal protection.

7:The same sex couples want a legality.

Are the above sentences acceptable for native speakers?
Also, I would like you to give me some other examples which stand for
'legal recognition' or 'legally recognized'.
Thank you in advance.
