Georgia, 1980

Few attorneys can add “Land Man” to their resume, however, Raymond is not like most attorneys. Raymond began his legal career with a large Augusta firm until he relocated to Montana for a two-year stint writing oil and gas title opinions and negotiating oil and gas leases with landowners all over Big Sky Country. In 1985, Raymond settled in Atlanta where he has since practiced commercial and residential transactional real estate. Raymond managed his own successful practice prior to joining Campbell & Brannon in 2008.

Raymond grew up in Augusta, Georgia. He is especially proud of his “Double Dawg” status, having completed both his undergraduate and law school education from the University of Georgia. When Raymond is not in the closing room, you can find him on the golf course.

"Raymond Kearns met us in the lobby early and led us to an open conference room. My client was a first-time buyer, and I'm sure didn't know quite what to expect. Raymond went through the documents, highlighting all the important points, explaining everything along the way. I know this put her at ease and made it an enjoyable experience. Thank you, Raymond, and Campbell and Brannon. You're the best!"
