Working visa for a law school graduate?

I am a international student, after finishing my bachelors, I decide to apply to Syracuse University College of Law after I saw about their scholarships. I got a good offer and I can afford it. But I am worried about employment after graduation. Would any company sponsor a working visa for a law school graduate? The university is in NY state but I wouldn't mind go anywhere in the United States. If not there would be any opportunity overseas for someone with a American J.D.?

    That isn't going to happen. There is an enormous glut of lawyers. There aren't even enough jobs for the law school graduates who are legally authorized to work. Nobody will be able to get you a visa.

    No, and no.

    By the way, a working visa would be a visa that works. Visas can't work, that's why they are called work visas or employment visas.
