Want career in EU/European law, please advise.

The problem is, I'm not entirely sure how to turn this into a career-path. While, ideally, I'd like to end up in academia, right now I'd like to get some work experience somewhere in Europe, and then perhaps a few years down, do some work in the US for a firm that helps clients do business in Europe. Is this a feasable careeer goal? If so, how might I go about attaining it? Would an LLM be an ideal place to start? Any advice, at all, would be greatly appreciated. (I'm posting this on both the Europe and UK-IRL boards.) [Edited by EUlawdude on 14 Nov 2008]
