Foreign LLBs Going to US Law School?

<p>I am considering doing an LLB in a prestigious university abroad. (Trinity College Dublin) mainly because I cant afford to go to America for undergraduate. </p>

<p>Does the top american law schools get many foreign applicants who have already done a bachelors in law?</p>

<p>If so, and they want to practice law in America (e.g. New York) what degree do they usually do in the american law school?</p>

<p>LLM or JD?</p>
