You don't say much more the second time, other than confirm you owe the debt. You received a response to some of your questions. "Total bankruptcy" is not a legal term, and tells us nothing about his bankruptcy case. Your best option is probably to ask your questions to the BR law, or hire a lawyer to defend the case.
Your post makes absolutely no sense. I am guessing you cosigned a debt with him.
If he filed total bankruptcy (called Chapter 7), they CAN sue. That case does NOT protect you and you get to pay in full. His lawyer cannot give you legal advice since he is an adverse party to you.
Get your own lawyer and do not call his lawyer.
