Thats not good. If you give the whole amount for the last hearing then you will be waiting for the Judge's decision for ages and it may take you 2 or more years to wait. The lawyer will not chase your case anymore as hes got all your money.

Heres what you should do.
What was your deal with tha lawyer?
if it was a complete contract up to the NSO, then i think you shouldnt be giving all the rst of the amount.

Wait till you have the dates for the hearing, and on the hearing day give part of the money.
Next will be the Judge's decision. Wait til you have the decision letter and signed by the judge before you pay him again. And the next one is the Finality, that means SolGen has not appealed for reconsideration of your case.

And lastly give the rest of the payment when you have the copy of marriage contract from the NSO with the annotated null and void.

Trust me the lawyer will make your case bit faster so he can have the whole payment. Chase him up all the time. never give the whole payment unless the annulment is done.

Ive been there and had a few experienced. Lawyers are very wise. As soon as they have your money they will leave the case ont he side and let it flow in a normal process which will take ages.
