You should consult with a contract attorney about your rights in relation to the debt settlement company. In the meantime, you will need to respond to the complaint filed by the creditor to avoid a default judgment against you.

Unfortunately, that happens often with many of those companies. Unless the claims of the creditors were satisfied as agreed they can pursue you for remaining balance owed.
