USPTO Patent examiner exit opportunities

Hey, everyone, I recently got a job as a Mechanical Engineering Patent examiner (starting June 1st), and I was planning to do part-time law school in DC while i work at the USPTO. What kind of exit opportunities do I have after I graduate from Law school, especially as a part-time law student? I wanted to do BigLaw, and I am worried about wasting my time at the USPTO or having a hard time recruiting since I won't be able to do summer internships like normal law students. I'm really just trying to decide if I need to go to Law school full-time, since the part-time option makes more sense financially. Any advice is appreciated
