Working During Law School (Side Jobs, Ideas, Etc)
I'm looking into various ways to work on the side during law school in order to keep my income up while in school and I'm curious what ways other law students have earned income while in school. I'm currently renewing my soccer refereeing certification and planning on doing that on weekends where I'm not drilling with the reserves. I'm also working on generating articles for Cracked.com and any other outlets where I can sell content. Any other ideas?

A friend of mine (not in school) drives uber for about 4 hours every Sat/Sun morning and claims it's pretty decent side income

I would look into online, pay per production work.
I'm currently writing for a company that produces large amounts of SEO-based content for businesses. It depends on the project, but they usually pay something like $7.50 per 400 word write-up, and you can probably knock four of them out an hour once you get in the swing of things since they're typically very generic. They don't have projects all the time, but I'd say something like 8 or 9 months out of the year they do. There are some other companies that do what we do.
I also do transcription work online, which is paid by the minute of audio you transcribe. That's less profitable but still helpful if you need something flexible, and don't mind typing a lot.
There's also a company I'm interviewing with that grades student essays, and pays by the piece.
It takes a bit of digging around online, but there are some great opportunities out there.
