I'm so sorry for spelling Communications wrong.

I'm not being facetious, but an even better choice might be Ethics.

English. I have several lawyers in the family and they English is the most important thing to study for a law degree. Your communication skills will come along with this knowledge. Latin is also a good skill to possess.

English! You need to be very good with language and writing to be a lawyer. My son just finished his first year at Columbia law, and it was when he was an undergrad that I learned there really isn't any such thing as "pre-law," but that law schools do want you to have a good liberal arts background and especially want you to be able to speak and write well.
The ethics remark may be cute, but I don't think it's an actual college major. :-)

Philosophy -- it demands the same communications skills as the other two disciplines -- but also teaches you to think critically.

I think communications would help, because even if you are successful enough to have someone else do your paperwork, you need to have the communication skills to convince someone of your point, as in " It's not what you say, but how you say it."
