Your message is confusing, do you "want to keep it as a hobby" or would you "love to get into consulting?" If you're looking for a job as an attorney I doubt that programming games as a hobby is going to help on your cv. If you feel the need state that it's a hobby, which is what your experience is regardless as to how good you think you are or may even be.
If you're looking to get into consulting and not practice law, what type of consulting are you looking to practice? If you want to get into the corporate world i.e. make steady money, having programmed some games on the side isn't going to impress anyone. You will need some real commercial experience. If you're looking to develop games, why the heck did you go to law school? I think you need some career guidance! |

I would have to respectively disagree with the last poster. If you have experience in more than one disipline more power to you. You never know how such experince will help you down the road. Who knows, you might want to become an attorney specializing in issues having to do with computer programming? I myself have training as both a physician and an information scientist and there is a field called medical informatics that combines the two and I had a job as an consultant that paid 6 figures.
