I would go with getting your J.D.
In terms of bang for your buck Law school is going to win out over an MBA in the long run. I've had this debate myself and decided that if I do go to grad school Law school is where I'll go. I'm kinda already inclined towards law since I was in High school Policy Debate and made it to the National Championship last year
The biggest obstacle is the LSAT which is a beast. I went and got the Kaplan LSAT prep book and started looking over it and it's pretty intimidating. It's not about info recall like a GMAT it's all about interpreting data that's thrown at you. Just another test to conquer though :p
Anything to go through 3 years of hell to become the devil.
I actually found an LSAT prep program on the web by a guy and it looks pretty dang good! If you want me to send you more info on it PM me.
Good Luck with whatever path you choose!
