Gordon Charles Webb was born in Seattle, Washington and raised in the greater Puget Sound region where he built and raced small hydroplanes and sailboats in his youth. Following high school he worked as a commercial fisherman in the South Pacific. After returning to Seattle he studied at the renowned Gomper's School of Boat Building and Design before launching Frontier Boat Corporation, where he directed the design and manufacturing of fishing boats for the Alaskan commercial fishing industry. After selling the company to a Danish corporation, Gordon decided to go to law school.

Graduating from Tulane University Law School in 1993 with a Master's Degree in Admiralty and Maritime Law, Gordon hired on at Bauer Moynihan and Johnson, the largest maritime-only law firm in the Pacific Northwest . Gordon's entrepreneurial spirit got the best of him, and two-and-half years later he founded Webb Law Firm where he represents people in maritime claims, personal injury, wage claims, bankruptcy law, auto accident claims and other matters involving litigation, trials, arbitrations and mediations of cases arising in Alaska, Washington, Oregon, California, Florida and other interesting venues around the world.
