How do you get married in the Catholic Church if only baptized and already married by law?
Being baptized is the integral part of being Catholic - once you are baptized, you are part of the Catholic Church. As such, if you were baptized in another church by another group such as the Protestants or Orthodox, you are probably validly baptized a Catholic, as a valid baptism is considered a sacrament of the Catholic Church regardless of who administers it. You can check the validly of your baptism by submitting the actions and words used to a priest.
If you are not yet Catholic, being married in a Catholic Church will not be a viable option for you. If your partner is Catholic, however, you may approach the priest with the desire of securing a mixed marriage, which the Church grudgenly may allow provided the non-Catholic party agrees to certain terms. You can review these with your parish priest. A mixed marriage cannot receive the special sacramental blessing of the Church as this is reserved for Catholic couples and so is highly discouraged and can only be granted with a dispensation.
The Catholic Church does not recognize civil marriages. If you or your spouse or both are Catholic and you married outside the Church out of ignorance of your obligation to have a sacramental marriage, you must tell the priest. If you deliberately underwent a civil ceremony despite knowing the above, this is a grave sin and must be confessed to a priest and absolution received before you can continue. Your civil marriage will be declared ineffectual and you and your partner will have to live separately, as single people, until a real marriage is conducted between you. You must approach your parish priest with your desire to rectify things and present the normal things that require consideration before a marriage: any impediments, religious status of both parties, any previous marriages, where and how any previous ceremonies may have been conducted, etc. Be open with the priest that he may be able to correctly guide you.
