I am delighted with LPL. They've stayed with me for years and Jeff Judge has been exceptionally helpful. I've gotten good advice. He's managed my assets professionally and has always been available answer my questions.
He helped me consolidate several accounts into one manageable asset. He took the guesswork out of what could have been a complicated process.
I trust him to be there and guide me through issues in which I have no expertise. But he does this all the time and has proven to be trustworthy.
I do recommend Mr. Judge. You will not be disappointed.

My husband and I met Mark and Jeff in 2014 when my husband left his job after 23 years. We met with Mark and Jeff to decide where to invest his retirement money. Before that decision was made, they took their time to understand our entire financial picture and based on that they gave us several options on where we could invest. They were very easy to talk with and made the conversation easy to understand. They are easy to get in touch with if you have questions and provide answers quickly. When it came time for me to retire, I also rolled my retirement investments into accounts managed by Mark and Jeff. We have also setup our estate planning as well as long term health planning based on advice we have had in review meetings in the years following our initial meeting. We have even referred our daughter and son in law to them. Highly satisfied with the investment service and customer service.

I check in with Mark a couple times a year and he always helps me keep my money that he manages growing. He also helps us with general advise regarding the type of places our 401k money should be (growth vs value, etc)

Jeff has been helping me since 2014 with life insurance and retirement investment products. After a bad experience with a big insurance company, I found Mark and I’ve been working with him ever since. I’m successfully retired now and will begin drawing on my investments this year. I highly recommend Chesapeake Financial Planners for your retirement planning. – Mark G.

Jeff has been my financial advisor/ planner for several years. He has always guided me in the right direction and I have seen my retirement account continuously moving in the right direction. During the current uncertainty of the financial world right now Jeff has given me peace of mind that I continue to be in a safe and secure position with my finances. Jeff is very professional and quick to respond to my emails. As I approach my retirement years it is comforting to know my finances will be there when I need them.

I have been working with Jeff Judge and Chesapeake Financial Planners for about 3 years. Jeff has provided timely and well considered advice and acted promptly when I've needed access and changes to my portfolio. Highly recommend their services.

We have worked with Jeff at Chesapeake Financial Planners for over 10 years. Throughout that time he has provided valuable investment and retirement information. Our investments have navigated this turbulent market far better than expected. Thank you Jeff.
