You are on the higher side of work experience for a 2Y MBA program. Whether Booth or other schools - they will try to nudge you towards their 1Y MBA programs. Be clear which format and why. Same goes for why consulting and what kind of consulting. Happy to speak if you wish to.

Somehow all lawyer applicants I have known or worked with had their hands in the Essar steel deal. Interesting to know and it shows that adcoms have usually heard all stories, lol. That does put a responsibility on you to keep your storytelling super strong when you start to compile your essays.
Your GPA is very low, so make sure you achieve a very high GMAT/ GRE score to balance this. One of my lawyer applicants with similar work experience did indeed interview at Booth, FYI, but you will have to come up with a wider list of b-schools to maximize your chances of admission. IT will be critical to address why you waited so long to get an MBA/ to pivot your career
Do you have any recent ECAs? if all the above that you have mentioned are from college, then they are pretty old. Even if you have some recent community initiatives taken up at work, that would be helpful to demonstrate that you are involved in the growth and support of others around you.
