Tenant making false health claims

I had a water leak at a property that required remediation. This was taken care of promptly by a professional remediation company chosen by the insurance company. There is still reconstruction to be completed and that is scheduled. The open drywall areas were covered taped by the remediation company. The opened areas were all very clean. The insurance company sent out a separate company to do mold tests. These all past. The tenant is now claiming a severe allergic reaction to the mold, dust, etc. from open construction areas. He had surgery a few weeks after the remediation was completed and he told us no work could be completed for two weeks for which he then requested another week. We obliged. One day he wrote an email about the mold and dust and claimed the taped up areas had come loose and the plastic was deteriorating. I showed up ten minutes later with tape. He did not answer the door, so I left the tape. I provided a proper notice of entry for a couple days later and he denied me access. I could go on, but simply these are false claims. I am having a hard time getting a lawyer to advise me. I could use some help in dealing with this individual.
