LLB in the UK and then law in America
I applied for LLB in the UK and so I've gotten an offer by both kcl and Durham. Would US unis recognise that I did complete the LLB and I'll head straight to law school there or does it work another way?

I believe you would have to sit the bar examination if you wanted to qualify in America, and that is a vastly different process. This also differs from state to state, so I would advise thoroughly doing your research on the bar. ULaw is a great resource for more information on this so I've linked their page on becoming a US attorney below. Hope this helps!
