Law school is a funny sort of grad school. For other subjects, if you pay tuition "you're not doing it right." Are there any kind of TAships for law school?
I made it through undergrad on loans, scholarships, and a part-time job. All by myself. I made $7,000 in 2008 and went to two foreign countries to finish my degree on that income. Obviously not everybody wants to live on rice and ketchup and instant dry milk in the ghettofabulous on-campus apartments, but it can be done. There may be a lot you're wasting money on because you think you can't go without it. Cable/satellite, new car with high insurance, internet (you can use the internet on campus,) going out to eat (cooking at home is probably 1/4th of the cost!) etc. You have to look at what you've got, since obviously I don't know what corners you've cut or not. If you have extra money you can calm down.
