Revisiting an old post- question!

[eventsdj]

We are not filing until November, but we met with and paid our attorney last week.
Does this look fishy to the trustees? We will be 90 days out or more from any transactions, except the purchase of a $350 TV from best buy for our sons 18th birthday, which I sent $400 to the next week (we sold our fishtank).
I don't even know what my question is really, but we figured we'd better pay while we had the money, and to lock us in (I'm very wishy washey) and wanted to get the ball rolling even if we couldn't file yet.

No, it will not look fishy. Many people take months to pay the BK attorney. In the case of a CH 7 the attorney will not file until he is paid in full so it is perfectly natural to have met with the attorney and file at a future date several months down the road.

Besides now there is a backlog anyway of filing AND it takes quite a while to put together the filing information for the attorney's office. What you are doing is perfectly normal.
