You might look into things that are law-adjacent; I'm thinking particularly of "compliance" work. There's quite a lot of that in both universities (research) and finance and I know some non-practicing lawyers who are happy in the niche.

seconded, i have a JD and work in compliance (in the financial industry). it's not nearly as well paying as biglaw obviously but it's a solid and growing industry!

Was going to add this. A bonus of working in higher ed is there are often tuition benefits. If you end up wanting to do a complete career change, you can take advantage of free (or subsidized) classes.
