So you have to choose between spending hundreds for a lawyer consultation or spending thousands. Can't catch a break.

Yeah completely agree, I don't want to get hate for this but it's worth considering if you can just negotiate the cost down, pay it, and forget about it.
Outco is/was a direct to my company so I can't speak much about them without getting review the way I talk about bootcamps haha.
But as a completely personal opinion as a human, I don't think it's cool to sue people if unless you try with good intentions to resolve something and meet in the middle. If they offered their services in good intentions and are trying to resolve the situation with good intentions, a lawsuit only seems necessary if a customer is coming back with genuinely bad intentions. I'm sure that's the case sometimes, but I'm talking to people like OP who never received notice of their "strike" and whatever the contract says, if I were Outco, I would take some responsibility for not running things perfectly on my side.
But personal opinion, people can do what they want and I can't give any legal advice.
