    If you haven't already hire a good lawer and give them all the facts and any or all documentation you have. I am thinking they will suggest a counter suit, but get a lawer ASAP.

    It sounds like they are going to try and prove that it was your poor management or choices that caused them to close, thus making you liable for some of their loses. Since it appears you were not an employee but a contract advisor of some sort.

    But this can be very hard, and documentation is going to be very important, you need local professional legal help
