I think "counter sueing" is not needed. Just show up to court with your documentation - and I'd think the judge or magistrate will throw it out.

Have you called the guy to tell him you have documentation that his claim is in error?

I definitely suggest giving him a call. And if he's uncooperative, call the partner that gave you the letter.

Why should I call him he is the one sueing me for $6000,00 and I have evidence to show I honour the contract.

Make sure you file with the court you intend to defend, otherwise tey will get a judgment against you.

You should have provided a WRITTEN notice.
