Gabe Tucker

Gabe joined Fortif in August of 2021. After growing up in a military family and living throughout the United States and Europe, Gabe is excited to call Birmingham his home.

Gabe advises clients as they form companies, raise capital, and encounter general legal matters with their businesses. He also has experience representing clients as they sell their companies through various corporate transactions, including mergers and acquisitions. He enjoys working with start-up companies and entrepreneurs as a strategic partner to efficiently maximize growth. Gabe also assists clients thinking through various matters related to economic development and public policy. In addition, Gabe assists individuals and families with their estate planning through the creation of wills, trusts, and other estate planning documents.

Prior to working at Fortif, Gabe attended Cumberland School of Law. For his undergraduate degree, Gabe attended Mercer University where he played on the men’s soccer team and met his wife, Hannah. When he is not working, Gabe enjoys exercising, playing sports, and following the English Premier League.

“I love the ‘AHA’ moments—those times when you unlock a solution to a difficult problem that allows your client to achieve its goal in a legal and ethical way.”
