It really does not matter. I went to law school, and many of my fellow classmates had a colorful background from biology, engineering, english, history, to political science.
I see you are considering philosophy. Philosophy would definitely help on the LSAT and eventually in law school in your law school exams.
Remember, that there is life after school, so I would suggest to obtain a degree where you are gaining a legal, in addition to the education. If you choose to combine legal skills with education, a B.A. in paralegal studies would be excellent. With this skill, you can definitely work as a paralegal, gain experience, and go to law school.

Some schools offer pre-law as a major. Others offer it as a concentration. Law schools look at a variety of majors, but you'll want to build skills in writing, public speaking, and analytical thinking. Because of this, speech, political science, history, and philosophy all make good majors.

After finishing your graduation (14 years of school and college study)in Commerce and Arts stream you can enroll for Law School. In fact after graduation in any discipline, you can join law school but depending upon which law you want to specialize, you may choose the subject like wise. Science and psychology helps in Criminal law. Philosophy and international politics helps in political law, etc.

It depends on what kind of attorney you want to be. For example if you want a corporate law attorney, you may want to get a business degree, or a degree in accounting, or maybe you want to work on computer crimes, then a degree in Computer science would be helpful. Philosophy is easy, so you will get out what you put into it.

History and philosophy. This will help you to understand what the major issues are, and how to think about them.

Does not matter, if you want to get into patient law, take engineering, computer sceince could be good in some law fields. Business managment.
It is how well you do, not what you are taking in general.

It's ok, but if the law school thing doesn't work out, you aren't prepared for any other profession. Business administration is always a good choice, as is criminal justice.
