There are too many kinds of lawyers to do a basic pro con list. Some earn a lot of money, some are struggling. Some work long hours, some dont. There’s different areas of law, so even that is dependent on what you’re interested in.

You can also enter in your skills and do a search for what jobs will match those skills. Oh and you’ve got plenty of time. When you start your undergraduate degree, do a pre-law track. See if you like it. If you dont, you can always explore other options
