adiantamento da indemnização

Money the state pays a victim in advance, without waiting for a verdict and payment from the offender. Victims of domestic violence receive it if the crime itself has left them in serious financial hardship. The decision is made by the CPVC commission under the Ministry of Justice: the amount is set on an equitable basis, but is no more than the monthly minimum wage and paid for no longer than six months, with a possible extension of another six; in especially serious cases it can be paid as a lump sum.
