Slightly more helpfully.... My nephew, a UK citizen, undertook a three month internship in Chicago. He required a letter of invitation from the firm and evidence he was returning to the UK ( a letter from his university was sufficient). He needed a visa, ESTA wasn't enough. but the process was relatively painless involving submitting the form and having an "interview" at the US Embassy where they talked through the form. I think it cost around £100.
Very good to hear that it's possible. Thanks.

I've done just that and am awaiting their response. I thought it may be worthwhile to ask here too, though given the apparent complexity of this, the law firm is definitely the best option.
