Eugene (“Gene”) C. White is the owner and founder of Treasure State Land and Water Law. Gene grew up in a ranching family in Ennis where he worked on his grandparents’ ranch learning the processes of stock watering and irrigation and developing a keen understanding of the challenges facing water rights claimants throughout the statewide adjudication project. After graduating from Florida State University College of Law in 2019, Gene began his legal career as a Water Master at the Montana Water Court where he spent six years and was promoted to Senior Water Master.
