More information would be helpful to my understanding of the exact issue here. If spouses own a membership interest in an LLC, are you asking if the membership interest is at risk if one of the spouses is sued? Generally assets owned jointly by spouses is not at risk for claims against one spouse only. If each spouse has individually owned shares of an LLC (each one is separately a 50% member), then that may be different. More information about how the LLC interests are titled and what type of claim you're asking about would be helpful.
