Hi,

Attorney said that thay can file my H1B in "Out of country" case and in Normal processing and it will not effect my travel as well as my case with uscis. is it possible? Please advise.

It means same as "consular process" So you would not move to H1 status from H1 start date, you would have to continue to work on L2 EAD after your re entry.

This is my opinion not legal advice.
