It really depends on the types of fees they are claiming that you owe. When collecting money owe under a court order or judgment, the recipient is generally entitled to 10% interest plus certain costs like the fee paid to the court to get the writ of execution.
I would demand and accounting and then have it reviewed by an attorney to determine the true amount that you owe, if any.
