Heh! This is why I seriously doubt I'll do it-- I foresee just switching back as well, three years and $200,000 lighter!
Perhaps a better question would have been, as a SWE how can I get involved with interesting problems relating to law? Maybe working implementing tax law related software? I did work on a cloud billing system and found that aspect interesting.
Maybe working implementing tax law related software?
Most people wouldn't find this to involve interesting problems, but to each their own lol
Check out the Freelaw Project, they operate a couple open source things with which you can get involved. I have been a contributor there myself. Can invite you to the Slack if you find it interesting

Ha
I was a dev for a few years, went to law school, worked in law for a bit, and have now switched back to being a software engineer (thank God).
And I am not the only person I know with backgrounds in both--there are dozens of us!
