The other option (expensive and time-consuming) is applying to American law schools after completing your undergrad degree here. You need money (or a scholarship) and amazing grades (don't even bother if it's an offer from a law school outside the top 14, no hope in hell that a US firm will sponsor you for a visa otherwise).I know a couple of people who ended up practicing in the USA that way - they went to Harvard/Yale/Stanford law school, then got sponsored for a visa by the firms in question.Naturally, that's far less likely than the advice/guidance other people in this thread have given you, but it is still a path to practicing in the USA that I know people personally who have taken.
