No career is inherently superior to the other. Law and engineering are significantly different from each other.
In the field of law, the qualities of a person such as interest, oratory/conversation skills, cunning wit, ability to deflect & manipulate arguments and other soft skills are essential for progress. Law requires skills beyond bookish knowledge. A career in law is like an adventure. Every case is unique and every lawyer (at least litigating) crafts his/her own story.
Engineering, on the other hand, is not heavily dependent on the person's soft skills. A career in engineering basically requires strong working knowledge and application of concepts. Engineering is generally considered to be a safer option due to the availability of jobs and is a tried and tested career in India.
To summarize:
In engineering, the probability of succeeding by anybody is about 75%.
In other special fields (like Law) the probability of succeeding by anybody is probably about 10% (or just 5%) but the height reached by him/her will be probably 10 times more than the average success of the engineer.
I hope I have not confused you.
So, you decide whether you are in the 10% group or the 75% group.
