I gota disagree. Breaking every law would basically make them anti-lawful. You could always predict their behaviour in this case which IMO is absolutely not chaotic.
There are lots of different ways to break laws!
There just has to be a way to differentiate neutral from chaos, because your interpretation is that they both break or follow laws depending on the circumstances. No difference.
It's all in the interpretation, alignment is a squishy subjective thing, but I rule the difference as the chaotic character absolutely does not care. Even if told "The punishment for doing what you're doing is X", and X is really bad for them and so they should try and avoid it out of self-interest, they just wouldn't care.
A neutral character can be swayed by the legal consequences of their actions, even if the law isn't especially important to them.
