J. Hobie Murnane
Financial Representative

J. Hobie Murnane, MBA, CLU, took a long and winding path to The McTigue Financial Group. Hobie has been a military leader, teacher, coach, Jesuit and counselor. Each experience has prepared him for success as a financial representative.

Seeds for Murnane's success were planted during his military service more than 25 years ago. As a graduate of the U.S. Military Academy West Point and a captain in the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment in Fort Bliss, Texas, he was responsible for leading hundreds of people.

What's the common thread among Murnane's experiences? "In each, I have been driven to be deeply and meaningfully involved in the lives of other people," he says.

Joseph Albrecht
Financial Representative

Joe Albrecht was an Estate Planning Attorney for a small Chicago downtown law firm. He was spending too many hours working and wanted to start his own law practice.

He planned to return to school and earn his master's of law in tax when he received a call from Deborah Holter, recruiter for the McTigue Financial District Network Office in Northbrook. Joe agreed to meet with her.

As a client of The McTigue Financial Group, Joe loved working with his financial representative but really didn't know what he did. Joe figured networking with Deborah would be good for his future plans.

After numerous conversations, Joe decided to give it a shot. He has been a financial representative since 2004.
