Lawyers have more prestige than engineers for some strange reason. Likely because some do make a ton more money.
However, kids are becoming lazier and lazier. Science and engineering are hard. Law schools take any major, so you can have a major in underwater basketweaving, get straight A's, and go on to a good law school.
It's the path of least resistance.
