Unless you have an agreement with the company stating that you have a right to assert a lien against its property, you cannot do so until you get a judgment against it. You have to sue the company and win. At that point you will legally be entitled to use various judgment enforcement procedures to collect the money you are owed, but until you get a judgment you are only a guy claiming that he is owed money.
