Re: personal injury law
no. There must first be a resolution of the matter and a judgment must be filed. The judgment acts as a lien on real property and allows the creditor to attach the assets of the business.

Re: personal injury law
Not unless there is a founded fear that the business will squander its capital to avoid paying the victim if the victim (who must establish a very strong possibility of success on the merits of their case) succeeds. It is called a "Yellowstone Injunction and is very rarely used especially in personal injury suits.
