Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Michigan

My husband hired a company, ADI wholesale to install a ceiling in my salon/boutique which is an LLC and I am the sole proprietor. They did not install the entire ceiling and my husband finished it himself. I owed them $7000, I sent them $1000 and they agreed to accept payments from me. A few weeks later I got a call from Bank of America demanding the amount in full...ADI went out of business, but are they bankrupt or did they just walk away and leave the bank hanging. Now they are suing for the balance, but suing my husband and the wrong legal name of my business, so technically they are suing the wrong entity. The tiles are yellowing and i don't have ADI to replace them or service the job that they didn't even finish. I would have never hired ADI had i known they were going out of business and I don't understand how B of America can sue us and act as ADI nor do i see how they have a case by suing the wrong person??? They want me to give a deposition and I don't think I want to, isn't there a legal technicality that should have this thrown out of court? I don't see how they can pursue this, please advise...thank you!
