Can a money paid in a judgement that was filed against a failed LLC, in which I was held personally responsible be deducted?

Yes, if the basis of the suit was a business matter, rather than personal. 

 

Those amounts cannot include fines or other penalties. Legal fees are also deductible. Again, if the issue has arisen due to acts performed in the ordinary course of business.
