First class degree is always very helpful for your career. Law is a profession where (i) the school you attended and (ii) the grades you got at it matter. Partly also because it makes it easier for your partner/firm to sell your services.
Always put yourself in your potential employer's shoes when confronted with these questions. You may find that you can answer them yourself.
