Legal Question in Personal Injury in California

I have been dealing with a personal injury suit which has been settled. Prior to settling, in a conference with my Attorney upon which we discussed the allocation of funds for the settlement (50k), he disclosed to me that he was guaranteeing me $20k as my award and anything in excess of that, that was needed to cover any further medical bills, his company would take care of. He would not put this in writing, however I do have it voice recorded. I am now dealing with a situation where one of the medical offices is contacting me, stating that the Attorney's office stated that I refused to pay the bill and the Attorney's office is recommending that the Medical office sue me for the amount due.

Do I have any recourse?

An attorney would have to review the underlying documents, including your authorization for treatment, the disbursement, and whether or not there were any liens by the doctor.
