LS 207 Notice of Controversion under DBA

LS 207 Notice of Controversion of Right to Compensation


The Defense Base Act insurance company may file an LS-207 - or a Notice of Controversion. In a nutshell, this notice is supposed to put you on Notice (i.e., let you know) that the insurance company is denying either your entire claim or a portion of your claim.

For example, suppose you have claimed injuries to your right should and back. The insurance company may may file a Notice of Controversion, which controverts (read: opposes) injuries to your back.

Or, the insurance company may obtain a Labor Market Survey and controvert your right to continued permanent total disability payments.

When you do receive a Notice of Controversion you will probably need to marshal the evidence to address the issues being controverted.

Because San Diego has the largest shipyard on the west coast with thousands of shipyard workers, Bill gained valuable experience with these cases long before the United States sent civilian workers to Iraq and Afghanistan. That experience helps him win Defense Base Act cases. Let The Turley Law Firm put their experience to work for you.
