Lawyers are really hard, but according to what you say, you have some personal connections. You can find a famous lawyer, be his assistant first, then take cases slowly, and gradually accumulate. As far as I know, lawyers in Beijing earn money for a good year and earn a normal income for a lifetime.
When you enter the High Law, you should start from the grassroots level, depending on the leader's face, which is not as easy as lawyers, and there is no such thing as it. If the country pays a high salary to maintain honesty, its income will be higher than that of the ordinary working class, but there will never be freedom of lawyers.
It depends on your interest, whether you like a business with power or wealth. And if you have a hard background, you will have a bright future in entering the high school. On the contrary, it is better to be a lawyer.
