I'm going with A) Counterclaim. It's the most straightforward option, and I don't want to overthink this. Let's just keep it simple, folks.

B) Collateral attack? Really? I feel like that's just trying to confuse us. This is clearly a counterclaim situation.

I agree with Adell. Company B's claim against Company A would be called a Cross-claim because it is made in the same proceeding.

D) Cross-claim sounds like the right choice to me. Company B is making a claim against Company A, but it's not a counterclaim since it's not directly related to Company A's original claim.

Cross-claim makes sense in this situation. Company B is seeking damages against Company A for fraudulent inducement.
