About Me

A skilled courtroom litigator, Frank Ávila specializes in employment cases, political and governmental matters, and civil rights law. Most notable of late is his representation of former death-row inmate in his lawsuit against the city of Chicago, several former police officers including Jon Burge, and the Cook County State's Attorney for torturning and framing him for a double homicide which he never committed and for which he was later pardoned by the Governor.
Frank is also active in numerous political campaigns. His father is the elected Commissioner of the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago.
He holds a commission as a Captain in the U.S. Army Reserve Judge Advocate General's Corps.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Frank Avila has met some interesting people like President George W. Bush, US Senator Barack Obama, Mayor Richard M. Daley, actor Edward James Olmos and Rapper/actor Ice Cube. He probably would like to meet if he could go back in time ABRAHAM LINCOLN and THOMAS MORE (both lawyers).
Frank Avila is a popular Cable TV host. Frank Avila interviews Bob Cooley who was the Chicago Mafia’s “Mechanic”—a fixer of court cases. During the 1970s and ’80s, Cooley bribed judges, court clerks, and cops to keep his Mob clients—hit men, bookies, racketeers, and crooked pols— out of jail. Paid handsomely for his services, he lived fast and enjoyed the protection of the men he served.

Frank Avila talks with members of the Tibet communiy in Chicago and talks about the upcoming visit of His Holiness the Dalai Lama's advocacy of religious harmony, non-violence, and human rights throughout the world and for his efforts to find a peaceful solution to the Tibet issue.
