Noah Gipson

Noah Gipson is a civil litigator whose practice focuses on insurance defense, private party litigation, and estate and trust matters. Raised in southwest Wyoming with a ranching background, Noah has a grounded and practical understanding of the legal issues that affect rural communities, particularly those involving land use, water access, and natural resources. This background shaped his interest in the law at an early age and continues to influence the thoughtful and accessible way he serves clients today.

Noah’s interest in becoming an attorney began when he sat in on a call about oil and gas lease terms during his childhood. What others found dull, he found fascinating, and the experience sparked a long-term appreciation for the role lawyers play in helping people understand complex rights and obligations. As he grew older, he became increasingly aware of the legal challenges surrounding grazing leases, water access, and resource allocation in rural areas. These experiences inspired him to pursue a legal career that supports individuals, landowners, and communities facing similar issues.

While earning his J.D. from the University of Montana School of Law, Noah completed a certificate in Environmental and Natural Resources Law and served as a clerk for the Chief Water Judge through his law school’s clinic program. His work exposed him to significant water policy issues in Montana and highlighted the real human stakes behind resource-related disputes. He saw firsthand how access to water can determine the future of a ranching operation and how fair resolutions are essential for both landowners and tribal communities.

Noah joined BKBH in 2025 with a genuine passion for continual learning and a commitment to making the legal process approachable. Known for being personable and easy to talk to, he ensures clients feel comfortable asking questions and never feel overwhelmed by legalese or complex procedures. His goal is simple: to offer the clearest path forward by explaining each step in a way that feels manageable and grounded in common sense.
