Upon admittance to the Florida Bar in 2004, Gil remained in Gainesville and was hired to lead the personal injury department of a locally recognized law firm. His hard work and demonstrated professionalism resulted in Gil attaining partnership status at his prior firm after only 5 years. The knowledge and experience gained in his initial years of practice enabled Gil in 2013 to establish his own partnership with J. Mark Dubose in forming The Law Office of Alba & Dubose, P.A. A full listing of practice areas is provided below. In addition Gil is fluent in Spanish, and proud of his Latino heritage, allowing him to be uniquely suited to service Spanish-speaking members of our community.
