McClain Lovejoy where more than your money matters

A DIFFERENT APPROACH TO FINANCE

We are John Lovejoy and Eric McClain. We created McClain Lovejoy as a fee-only financial planning and investment management firm with a focus on delivering comprehensive retirement plans and custom investment strategies for present and future retirees. We love nothing more than helping people make the most of their financial resources. Our goal is to help retirees and pre-retiree clients simplify their financial affairs and invest in the next stage of their lives, helping them free up precious time and energy to focus on what’s really important to them. Because your happiness matters to us, not just your money.
