Longtime Family Financial Firm Proud To Stay In Lakewood

Twenty-six years ago my father Steven R. Clark packed up our family from West Park and began to establish roots in Lakewood. As my sister and I passed through Taft, Emerson, and Lakewood High School my father was growing Clark Financial Services with his trusted friend Randon Dobson. I would go on to join them at Clark Financial Services after completing college. After fifteen years at the INA building we were at a crossroad; do we stay in Lakewood or think about other suburbs?

During our discussions we would reflect on the relationships that we have built in the community over the years.  My father kept talking about the opportunity of working with other community leaders on Lakewood Alive and serving as Treasurer for the Lakewood Chamber of Commerce for the last few years. We have also had the privilege to be a part of events such as the Community Festival at Madison Park, the New Teacher Banquet hosted by the Lakewood Chamber of Commerce, the Home Show, and the Light Up Lakewood Festivities. I often thought about growing up in the Lakewood City Schools and benefiting from all of the great teachers Lakewood provided me.

Ultimately, there really was not much of a choice at all. As of the first of the year, we are located at 14600 Detroit Avenue in Lakewood Center North. We look forward to continuing to work with retirees and investors on their investment and life insurance decisions, right here at home in Lakewood, Ohio.
