I know several Australian pilots flying for US airlines and everyone of them had an application prepared by a US attorney. An offer letter and an LCA are only two of a long list of documents that must be provided and or, must be able to provide which are generally, not publicly mentioned or available on the US Govt site.
I, and every Australian pilot I know here, just got an LCA and met the requirements, no attorney, no problems.
You may mean well but you're ill informed. No attorney can affect the decision of the USCIS. When it comes to interview day, it is just you, the consular officer and their discretion.
Here's how my interview went:
"Why do you want a visa?"
"I have a job offer and meet the E3 requirements, would you like to see?"
"Your visa is approved, NEXT!"
