Your firm has every right to legally recover the genuine dues of the firm through its partners. No law debars that your firm should be cheated by anyone merely because your firm is not registered.

Yes you can recover your money paid to XYZ for supply/sale of goods to XYZ under Order 37 CPC and also file check bounce criminal case under section 138 NI Act.
