I took a seminar in college on Intellectual Property Law where the instructor was a former developer who went to law school to be an IP Lawyer instead, specializing particularly in software. A friend of mine got a dev job at a FAANG out of college and hated it enough that subsequently they have been working as a non-dev in human rights policy type stuff, not quite lawyer but very similar trajectory.

Just a couple of examples.
