If you are interested in law, but don't want to work in a law firm or as in-house counsel, then why don't you just simply buy the text books and read them? A well curated reading list will give you all the knowledge of law that you could ask for without the massive debt. Attending law school still requires you to read masses and masses of material. I studied law for a year and dropped out. Went on to work in IT (already had engineering degree) for several top end of town law firms. Earned more than the associates and they envied my far nicer office. Even my working hours were more humane.
