It depends on who caused the injury. If it was the company, your suit would be against the company. If it was the individual owner, you should sue the owner. There are times when you can pierce the corporate veil if the corporation is acting inappropriately.
You should contact a local attorney to determine where liability falls.

You would sue the LLC if they LLC was the "person" you made the contract with. The ownership of the LLC is normally irrelevant unless an owner signed a personal guaranty or the company was defectively formed.

An LLC may be sued, just as any other body corporate may be sued. If you did business with the entity, you must sue the entity and not the owners (unless you have reason to believe the owners are also liable for your claims, which would involve consideration of facts which do not enumerate).
