It depends on your retainer agreement. Usually attorneys would continue to provide you legal services and file paperwork with court and charge you interest on paid fees.
If your retainer agreement states that the attorney would not file anything with court, specially the uncontested or final divorce papers untill all fees are paid than YEAH. Read your retainer agreement and make the necessary payment.
If not look for a more reliable and understanding attorney for your needs.
