I think it comes down to ultimately what you want to pursue, often if you have the right connections, you can start in whatever industry you desire (with exception of medicine or extremely specialised professions such as actuary). For example, you might realise at the end of your degree that law is not for you, and wish to pursue further studies, e.g. Honours and what not to do research in science/become academic lecturer/or do a masters of education-->become a teacher.
Law can have many possibilities, for example, consultancy doesn't really rely on any particular degree background, you can also look into government sector opportunities, tax departments in the big 4, also there is obviously traditional law firms, community legal centres, and probably a lot more if you investigate into the possibilities further, most likely through discussing with a relevant career adviser in your university.
