Throughout this thread - I have not heard ..... what I really Love is .....
what did you right in your college application?   I am sure there was some element of changing the world.  Go find that person.

Law School can be great - do you want to do immigration law?   Work for the Southern Poverty Law Center?  Another part of society that is underserved?   [There are students in DC who have learning needs who are 5th year 9th graders - but parents never realized that their children were not getting the services that Federal Laws require DC to provide]     You are in the financial position to take your father's hard work, pay it forward, and have a great life.

This. OP, you have the financial freedom to do what many lawyers planned to do when they were idealistic law students, before law school debt and the costs of home ownership and families pushed them into more lucrative areas of legal practice. It's crazy you are only looking at biglaw when you don't even care about biglaw. It sounds like you care more about the prestige of biglaw, but this is ephemeral and superficia, not to mention unnecessary since you're already very wealthy.
