Do you mean the best undergraduate institution for students eventually seeking admission to law school?
Or do you mean the best law school?
In terms of law school placement rates at the undergraduate level, many, many colleges do very well. Since law school admissions are idiosyncratic, an undergraduate student hoping to attend law school should
1) attend the best college into which s/he can gain admission
2) choose a major for which the student has passion and dedication
3) hone one's writing skills at every opportunity
4) hone one's presentation skills at every opportunity
5) seek the counsel of a pre-law advisor, if the college has one.
The best law schools? Yale, Stanford, Harvard, Columbia. This ranking by reputation, selectivity, and by job placement of graduates is beyond dispute.

I'm pretty much alone in this opinion, but I think the quality of a student's education has far less to do with what school he or she went to, than how hard the student works while in school. The individual instructors are also a factor. It is VERY possible to go to a giant, well-known law school and get lost, even intimidated and thoroughly disappointed. I think US News & World report's "best colleges" is a total joke. How can Stanford pull ahead of UCLA this year or that, like a car race? Check out the ABA's web site for the bar pass rates for your state. Consider costs carefully, because law schools are notorious for tapping into rich families for funds, exchanging reputation or legacy for cash. Get yourself caught up in that if you have money to burn, but if you're like me, find a law school producing a high percentage of people passing the bar. I went with the highest pass rate. My school also doesn't use the Socratic method, which was an important factor for me. I don't want any proven ill-effective methods in my pursuit of the bar. Good luck.
