Would a law firm sponsor a work visa?

Not an immigration attorney (and you should speak with one), but the question I would ask would be, why would a US firm hire you if you are US educated? We have plenty of US citizens with new US law degrees - why go to the trouble of hiring one who requires so much additional paperwork and expense? What’s the advantage to the law firm? An American firm hiring an experienced British lawyer for it’s international practice would make sense - a British firm hiring a British national trained in US law would make sense, even a newly minted one, but your case makes little sense for anyone - at least in my opinion.
