About Us
Where Do You See Yourself In The Future?
Our Services Focused on You
Our goal is not only to help you reach your goals but to help you exceed them. That is why we use personalized plans and comprehensive, expert advice to bring you closer to financial success, stability, and independence.
Our Resources A New Approach to Planning
The resources available to the team at The Fitzgerald Group allow us to help you achieve your goals and aspirations. We use this personal touch and a wide range of specialized knowledge to help facilitate better financial decisions by providing creative strategies to improve financial results.
Our Process
Through our unique, macroeconomic approach, we help our clients work through the many phases of their lives to make confident decisions based upon facts verified by math and science rather than market hype or opinion. Coordination of assets, comprehensive planning, economic modeling, building wealth, protecting assets, and distribution of wealth are all encompassed in our complete system, made to help you realize your short-term and long-term goals.
Who do you typically work with?
Many of our clients are accomplished professionals, business owners, and retirees who want their money to work as hard as they do – for today, tomorrow, and their legacy.
While we don’t set strict income or net worth equirements, we do hold a high standard. We work best with people who are serious about building and protecting wealth. Our clients are committed to growth, make intentional financial choices, and value having a trusted team that helps them make decisions based on facts, not opinions.
What exactly do you do as a financial advisor?
We help clients make sense of every part of their financial lives -from saving and investing to retirement income, tax planning, insurance, real estate*, debt, business decisions, and legacy goals.
What sets us apart is our focus on education: when you understand how money truly works, that knowledge becomes one of your greatest assets. With clarity comes smarter decisions, and with the right strategies in place, you can grow wealth, keep more of what you earn, protect your family, and approach the future with confidence.
Put simply, we help you make smart money decisions so you can enjoy more freedom, security, and financial confidance for yourself and the people you love.
Why the Fitzgerald Group?
At the Fitzgerald Group, we believe financial planning should be more than products or quick fixes, it should be a coordinated process that touches every part of your financial life. Our focus is on helping you make smart, informed decisions that build wealth, reduce unnecessary taxes, protect your family, and create lasting confidence for the future.
Along the way, our work has been nationally recognized. Joseph Fitzgerald has been named by Forbes as one of the Top 50 Best-in-State Financial Security Professionals**, is a Lifetime Member of the Centurion Club*** (a distinction achieved by only a small fraction of advisors nationwide), and holds the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERTM (CFP®) designation, one of the most respected credentials in the profession.
But what matters most isn’t the accolades – it’s how we treat our clients. When you trust us with your family’s financial future, you’re welcomed as part of our client family. You can expect elite service, customized strategies, and the commitment that if we can’t help directly, we’ll connect you with the right specialists who can.
Our goal is to provide more than advice, we aim to deliver a life-changing planning experience that creates confidence today and a lasting impact for generations to come.
How do you get paid?
We believe in complete transparency. Depending on the type of work, compensation may come from fees, advisory management, or insurance products. You’ll always know how we’re paid before moving forward, no surprises.
As part of our process, we begin with an initial conversation at no cost. It’s an opportunity for us to understand your goals, and for you to see how we work, before deciding if it makes sense to move forward together.
What’s the process if I decide to work with you?
This process is designed to take something complex and make it clear, actionable, and adaptable so you can move forward with confidence knowing every area of your financial life is working together.
Do I need a certain amount of money to work with you?
No. We don’t set minimum balances, but we do set high standards. What matters most is not how much you have, but how much you care.
We work with people who value their financial future, want to make informed decisions, and see planning as a responsibility to themselves and their families. Some clients are early in their journey, others already have significant wealth, but all share the same mindset: they take their future seriously.
If quick fixes or short-term thinking are what you’re after, we’re not the right fit. But if you’re ready to build clarity, confidence, and long-term success, then we’re ready to serve you with our complete commitment and the full resources of our team.
How do you communicate and stay in touch?
We check in regularly and are available between meetings for questions. Many clients meet with us annually or semi-annually, but we also adapt to life events as they happen. Meetings can be in person or virtual, whichever works best for you.
What happens if life changes?
Life doesn’t stand still. Whether you’re changing jobs, buying a home, raising kids, or entering retirement, we update your plan so it keeps working for you, no matter what stage you’re in.
What should I bring to an initial consultation?
You don’t need to bring anything to the first meeting. What’s most important is having an open conversation about your goals, values, and what you’d like to accomplish. If you have recent account statements or a general outline of your finances, that can be helpful, but it’s not required. The purpose of the first conversation is simply to get to know one another and confirm there’s a good fit.
