I was in a car crash and sued, worried about background check

Late last year I was rear ended while stationary by an apparent drunk driver in NYC. I had a concussion and filed a lawsuit. I was recommended therapy and accepted. Recently I've been feeling much better and decided no to go further with the lawsuit as I did not want to pile up $25k+ in medical bills with hopes of fighting in court to win it back when I already have a full time offer from a BB

However, I just got an email from my lawyers claiming the suit is still ongoing because I did not come in person to sign it off and only told them over the phone. 

I just filled my background check questionnaire and did not mention the lawsuit because I thought it was no longer being pursued.

I am so scared it would show up on my FINRA and other background check and my offer would be pulled for being involved in such a large lawsuit as it might show I have propensity to sue, the attorney said he's not sure if it would show up but I don't believe them. 

What do you guys think will happen, please help
