CHICAGO – Health law and litigation attorney, Michael V.

Favia’s law practice and experience is strong in healthcare law and litigation. With a background in policy, prosecution and defense, Favia is well-connected in the Chicago legal community and he works hard to share important news and information from organizations such as the RWJF.
The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation is the largest U.S. philanthropy devoted solely to improving health in the United States. They are committed to building a culture of health enabling all Americans to live healthy lives now and for generations to come.
“The mission of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation is to improve the health and health care of all Americans. Our goal is clear: To help our society transform itself for the better.” (RWJF website) For more than 40 years RWJF has managed private funds used in the public interest. Evidence, ideas and expertise are the key components that RWJF uses to promote its mission and achieve results. Favia will serve the organization’s Leadership Network as a health law legal professional, participating in dialogue and sharing information about topics related to improving the health and health care of all Americans.
RWJF works to increase awareness and share resources related to health care professionals and technology. A typical article the RWJF shares with the public, for example, reads: “CDC researchers calculate: If all Americans had equal access to the best preventative care, roughly 20 to 40 percent of premature deaths from the five leading causes of death could be avoided.” See the RWJF Facebook page for more information about the foundation and what it shares.
Favia has more than 25 years of experience in health law and litigation and works in conjunction with a team of litigators, experts and investigators to advise and represent clients. He is experienced working on both sides of professional licensing matters, the prosecution and defense. He is a former Assistant Illinois Attorney General and Chief Prosecutor for the Illinois Dept. of Professional Regulation (“IDPR”), now known as the Illinois Department of Professional and Financial Regulation (“IDFPR”).
Favia also owns a professional licensing consulting company where he and affiliated former prosecutors, investigators and professional licensing board members assist licensed professionals in their business, regulatory and IDFPR related matters.
