French term

avance sur recours

French to English Other Human Resources Forms
This appears in an HR form about accidents in the workplace and features as follows: 'Défense - recours et avance sur recours'.

The particular sentence it refers to appears to be about fees in relation to an insurance policy in the event of an accident. I assume that 'recours' refers to appeals or legal aid of some sort but I'm not sure what 'avance sur recours' could mean.

Any help much appreciated. Thanks.
