Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Indiana

I received a letter from my landlord's lawyer saying that my rent is overdue and I owe late rent plus a late fee and I have 30 days to pay the penalty amount or I will be sued. I paid the rent amount three weeks before due, however, and have (1) a bank receipt of the money order addressed to the landlord and (2) a paid rent receipt signed and dated by the landlord's office.
I feel threatened by the letter and am concerned that I could be taken advantage of financially in the future; I feel the landlord office has been extremely negligent. Is there any legal action I can take against the office?

Not really. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Take your receipts to the landlord's office and get it straightened out.
