Depends upon the uni!! Scarily good ones (eg Oxford, Cambridge etc) will want scarily good grades at A -level but some will let you in with lower grades. Look on the website for the uni(s) you fancy. Any experience you can get in a legal field will also help as it will convince them you are committed! For example volunteering part time at the Citizen's Advice Bureau.
Law degrees can be hard work sometimes but it's not as bad as everyone makes it out to be! I thought A-levels were worse actually - and no Student Union bar to compensate.
Good luck!!

You need a good LSAT score and an overall high GPA from your undergrad institution. What the numbers have to be will vary depending on what law school you look at. Those looking to go to law school typically major in law & justice, poli sci, or history and each of these serves as a good background for what to expect your first year of law school. Even if you aren't a law & justice major, take some l&j classes as an under grad to get your feet wet.

In the U.S., one needs to graduate from an accredited college or university with a 4 year degree. Also, part of the requirements are good scores on the LSAT (Law School Admissions Test).
There may be other requirements (like an essay, letters of recommendation, work experience, etc.).

I'm studying Law at Leicester, and I needed AAB, with English and Maths GCSEs. Varies from University to UNiversity, so you'll need to check each prospectus or website.
You don't have to take the LNAT for every Uni, I didn't for Leicester, but one of my other choices, Birmingham, I would have had to pass it.
Hope that helps!

Look on the individual institutions' websites. Cambridge you probably need 3 A's often history is a requirement. (not sure why) Some institutions will accept lower grades. Seek advice at www.ucas.ac.uk

Great balls of fire - if you don't know already, you haven't got them and probably never will have.
