Non-Traditional Law school route.

Hello, sorry for the late response. 
We’ve moved away from TN and now reside on the west coast very close to CA. My wife’s originally from California, and she wants to raise our kids there which I support. It’s a great state in my opinion with lots for the family to do. When we lived in TN we would spend X amount of money per year traveling to other states for the beaches and theme parks. 
Southern California close to Anaheim is where we’re looking.

I want to do intellectual property in Silicon Valley dealing with tech company mergers and acquisitions. But, that’s a reach and I’d likely need to get into the tech edge program at Santa Clara. Possibly doing a second bachelors when I can afford it, online at an Abet/Cac/Csab/Csac college for software engineering (Patent bar requirement later on) Penn state Global.

Then there’s the regular me who would feel complete not  stressing, and being able to work full time these next 3-4 years while attending a non-aba. Working for the state as a public defender, prosecutor, and eventually judge. Possibly being so content with not having excess student loans that I can start my own firm and help out the lower class who can’t afford counsel.

I’m content with both choices, and I’m definitely not rooting for the debt outcome honestly haha. 
I told my wife if all my income has to pay the bills I’m okay with it.
 I want to do this more than anything.
