Not a lawyer here. It’s a mess. First thing is to stop communicating with them as you might involuntarily give them things to harm you.

Then we don’t know the money involved, but imo, no one is going to go through the pain of a lawsuit for less than 20k. Especially if they owe you some invoices they haven’t paid yet.

I have a rule: I do NOT communicate with anyone who threatens or implies legal action, and I immediately forward any emails to my lawyer.

Like others, I strongly recommend you immediately stop all communications with the client or their representative and you talk to an attorney.

I wish you a happy resolution.
