This is a MUCH more insecure career choice. Too many law school graduates chasing too few jobs. And many legal services being replaced by easily searched info on the internet, or being offshored to an army of English-speaking, cheap staff in India.
Another option to consider is law school after an engineering degree-- now that’s worth a lot! I know 2 engineers who did this and started their own firm. With their combination technical+legal expertise, they are much in demand.
