This is a very interesting discussion. My opinion comes from my 15 years of serving as the Director of MBA Admissions at a top 30 MBA program. I initiated the JD-MBA program at that school several years ago. I'm now launching a boutique MBA admissions consulting firm.
First of all, do you classify yourself as Hispanic or Latino? If so, many business schools will be interested in you as a minority candidate. If you consider yourself a minority candidate, then you should get in touch with the Consortium for Graduate Management (
https://www.cgsm.org/). They have many services that can support you in identifying the right school, etc.
Second, are you leaving law school to attend business school, or do you plan to return to law school? If you are returning to law school, then your experience may not be as much of an issue for admission - especially if you consider a school that has a JD-MBA partnership.
Third, if you do not plan to return to law school, then your relative lack of experience will be a more critical issue because it will impact your employability post-MBA. Also, there will be questions surrounding your decision to leave law school (did you have poor grades, or did you find it was just not for you? If it was not for you, how can we be certain that business school will be for you? etc.). You will have to proactively address these issues and make a strong case for admitting your application to an MBA program.
I hope my observations here have been helpful to you. If I can assist you further, please contact me.
