Suing a contractor/roofer question

I have a question that I was hoping someone here with a little legal experience could perhaps answers. I am currently in a lawsuit with a roofer for the shoddy job they did replacing the roof of my rental. Having already won a judgment I am now in the process of calling him to court to show or list all of his companies' assets and income. I know for a fact that he has put several construction liens on the homes of several of his jobs where he was probably not fully paid after it was done.

My question is this: If the roofer were to close down/dissolve his company in an effort to avoid my judgment against him would he still be able to pursue those other construction liens under the now defunct company?

Basically I want to know if your business/creditor goes belly up can they legally still pursue their own lawsuits against others?

Thanks
