Michael McGrady, CFP®, CPA®
Investment Advisory Representative
About
Mike has been part of Tilson Financial Group for over 25 years, and in that time he’s become one of the firm’s most experienced voices on the intersection of tax strategy and long-term financial security. A CPA since 1983, Mike doesn’t treat tax planning as a seasonal exercise. He treats it as a year-round discipline that shapes every financial decision a family makes. His clients trust him because he brings decades of real-world expertise to the table, and because he takes the time to understand what security actually looks like for each household he serves.
EXPERIENCE
Mike’s specialization sits at the crossroads of income tax planning and estate tax strategy, two of the most consequential and often misunderstood areas of financial life. He works with clients to build plans that protect wealth across generations, minimize unnecessary tax exposure, and create the kind of clarity that lets families make confident decisions about their future. His CPA background gives him a technical precision that complements the firm’s planning-led approach, ensuring that every recommendation accounts for the tax implications other advisors overlook.
Credentials and Education
CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ (CFP®). Certified Public Accountant (CPA). Bachelor of Science in Commerce (Accounting), Rider University. Member, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and New Jersey State Society of Certified Public Accountants.
Beyond The Office
