No sales. No minimums. No hidden fees.
We focus on three core offerings provided as separate and distinct services.
Comprehensive Financial Planning
An ongoing relationship with a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ for a flat annual fee, paid monthly or quarterly. Comprehensive planning means we'll cover all the bases, from your initial plan and goal setting, to optimizing your cash flow, insurance, estate & tax planning, and much more. With regular check-ins to make sure you're on track and unlimited support, we're your collaborative partner in every decision that might be remotely related to money throughout the year.
Investment Management
Tailor-made investment portfolios based on your individual goals, time horizons, risk tolerance, and liquidity needs. No commissions. No nonsense. No trying to beat or time the market. We'll regularly rebalance your account, take advantage of tax-loss harvesting opportunities to save you money on your tax return, handle all cash management, and manage your portfolio with an approach backed by decades of academic research. All for one simple fee.
Financial Planning Projects
One-time engagements designed for those that aren't yet ready for an ongoing relationship. Projects can involve answers to a few specific questions, or help with a specific task like optimizing your employee benefits. A detailed write-up of all recommendations is included at the end of the project, with one simple fee based on project scope and complexity.... See More

James McGrath, CFP, CLU, CPA
Financial Strategies was founded in 1984 on the premise that taxes were an integral part of the Financial Planning and Investment Advisory practice. Realizing that very few Planners were providing integrated Tax services, Jim McGrath started incorporating tax planning and preparation for one fee for all of his Advisory clients.
We currently use the groundbreaking Investment philosophies of Dimensional Fund Advisors (DFA) to create the bulk of our client portfolios. DFA funds are only available through a limited, very selective group of Advisors, who have undergone additional, DFA sponsored education.
When Jim joined NAPFA in 2004, he was one of six NAPFA Registered Planners with the credentials of CPA, CFP and CLU.
We currently offer a free, 30 to 45 minute initial meeting for those considering Investment Advisory services. For those who are looking for more immediate answers to their questions, we provide a "Two Hour Tuneup" as a way for a review of your most pressing concerns.
