OP, I have done a lot of research regarding the legal economy in the US and the best route to become a lawyer. The Massachusetts Bar is pretty opaque about how they deal with this situation, but since Indian law is based on the Commonwealth Code, that is a good place to start. I would look into this with the Bar Association. The suggestion to work as a paralegal is very strong: you will hopefully be able to build up a network within the legal community for once you pass the bar. And if you do end up needing an LLM, Boston is home to three very good law schools for such a task: Harvard, Boston University, and Boston College. The biggest problem is if you will qualify for loans (very possible you'll need a USC to co-sign them) and law schools themselves rarely offer scholarships at the LLM level. However, if you do decide you want to be a lawyer in the US, there are ways to figure out all of these daunting tasks, just as we jump the hurdles to get visas in the first place.
