I have a degree in criminal justice and paralegal/legal assisting. I really think it is all wrong for me now but that is done so I have to move on. For you though paralegal is a good suggestion. The job is challenging though depending on what kind of law it is and size of the firm. Insurance is another idea. Working in claims. Lots of investigation and helping people. There is also dispatch with police stations. I know that was highly suggested when I was in school. Check out city websites to see what is available out there. I don't know how you feel about retail but many big box chains have what is called an asset protection manager. Some pay really well. Basically loss prevention and safety management. These are suggestions for things to look into from my experience. I haven't worked in asset protection but know from people I have talked to in retail these jobs are out there. Not so much a loss prevention position, but the asset protection manager gig. I hope some of these suggestions help.
