I'm going to add one massive caution. Law degrees in the US are steadily becoming less and less valuable. The very top does nicely, but the salary data shows that the law market (already a subset - excludes unemployed and those not in a law degree required job) has a camel hump (bimodal) salary distribution. Some (a small %) do very nicely - the $160K+ jobs everyone thinks about. The next hump is way lower - $100K+ lower.

Personally, looking to find a legal job to travel is playing with fire. You are really restricting your options before you even find out what type of law you like (or at least tolerate).
