You could run a perforated pipe, wrapped in filter fabric, back filled with stone in a trench to something like a dry well, (not sure why its called that) Basically a perforated structure typically back filled with clean stone that may give you a place to drain to. A french drain of sorts, and of course if there is water table problem or other drainage issues, it could just fill up and find its own level. Soil conditions play a role here. But, if you can get some slope and run far enough, and the soil percolates, you are above the water table, nothing on the surface interfering, its possible. It is nice to daylight the pipe somewhere, but not advisable if leach field effluent is what its draining.
If the posts are rising, and you could excavate around them, install poly or something to isolate them and not allow any grip, you would think that would solve a problem like this, as was mentioned below. Not sure if that is possible given the concrete slab.
What about the end of the leach field, could that be modified? Is it one lateral that is too close or the entire leach field, and the ends of the pipe? That is supposed to percolate down anyways along the pipe trench. Thinking aloud, if it was one pipe and you could 45 or 90 it away, extend using the same detail, stone, red rosin paper over the top etc. or whatever was approved, easy enough to do, but kind of a questionable idea given its a gravity system, change of direction as every one I have installed were straight runs etc. Though some of the weekend behind the scenes ones done quickly, as long as the soil percolates, it would seem possible.
Unsuitable conditions, the wet area during construction, why was this not addressed when it was under construction, a well drained site is necessary for any building and must be taken care of during site work. The suggestion of isolating the post with poly could have been done when it was built. Hindsight now, but hopefully you can correct the problem.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
