Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Ohio

Quit Claim Deed and survivorship

I am in a law suit where I am being sued. Even though I feel I've done nothing wrong I'm still scared I may get a judgement against me and they could put a lien against my property. Can I quit claim my property to my mother to avoid this from happening? Should I also have a survivorship so that if anything happens to her the property will come back to me or is there another way to protect my assets?
