Look into a post bacc or 4+1 programs for clinical lab science/medical lab science, see if you can shadow some people at different places. Pay is good, it's in health care, you won't need to start over completely from scratch. Can be 24/7 with night shifts or a clinic gig 8-4. Can be high stress in a hospital stat lab or blood bank at a level one trauma center or pretty chill in a reference lab or heavy metals lab or other speciality lab where stat turn around with results isn't expected. Depending on what your GPA is you might have trouble getting into it.
It isn't an "easy" career but it's one where you can transition into it with your bio degree without starting a whole new degree path and the subsequent tuition costs, it's medical so it would probably interest you, you'll generally have good benefits for your health issues, and the pay pretty good in most places. You'll need to pass a background check for hospital employment so depending on what your legal issue was, that's a consideration.
