I am happy to endorse Dale Krause, Founder and CEO of Krause Financial Services, Inc.  Dale and his staff are amazing at creating the perfect long-term care plan for elderly people who need assisted living care and nursing home care.  As an elder care attorney, I rely on Dale's expertise regularly when I'm assisting my own clients.  Also, Dale is one of a small number of Financial Planners that really understand Veterans Benefits.  He has been a guest presenter at my VA Benefits conferences because his knowledge and abilities are second to none.

In 2001, I had the great luck to be placed in contact with Medicaid expert Dale Krause, Esq.  Dale is also an experienced attorney with a national reputation in Medicaid planning.  In short, his expertise gave me the ability to quadruple my earnings.  We have done many millions of dollars of business together.  He is creative, very quick to respond and has a wonderful support staff.  I have never met anyone who I have been happier to do business with.  I have recommended him to other attorneys many times and they have been as pleased as I have been.  Anyone wanting further information about Dale can write me at michaelgoldesq@nysbar.com.

Krause Financial has always provided clear, consistent, reliable and accurate advice on the use of Medicaid qualified annuities. Dale does for me what I do for my clients - when a question comes up, he says in a deep, assured voice, "Everything will be alright." And then, miraculously, he explains away the problem or provides a solution that escaped me. I wouldn't use anyone else.

You can quote me as stating that I was very pleased and satisfied with the services provided and products recommended by Krause Financial Services. I found that you were very knowledgeable about Medicaid policies in general, and even with respect to those of the State of Ohio, despite being located in Wisconsin. I also want to say that your assistance in working through the financial calculations for Medicaid planning using annuities was very helpful, and the annuity product provided met our clients' needs very well. I also found the materials provided on your website helpful in designing a plan to fit our clients. I would not hesitate to use your services and products in the future, and fully expect to do so, and I would certainly recommend those services to others who may be counseling their clients about Medicaid planning opportunities.

I have worked with Kendra on my first half-loaf plan, she was very informative and always helpful. I also have worked with Amber who is also very helpful and informative.

Tammy Conover

Based on my experiences with other financial advisors, I will not use anyone other than Dale Krause for a Medicaid Compliant Annuity.  Other advisors may tell you They can "get the same thing," but purchasing a product and getting the service you need, and the knowledge behind it, are completely different things!  Dale's administrative staff is absolutely the best; they are available for questions at any time and I am amazed by the turnaround time I continuously receive.

Jacqueline Byrd

Attorney at Law
Bowie, Maryland

Ten years ago Dale helped me with the purchase of the first Medicaid Compliant Annuity I ever bought for a client.  He worked hours with me, even though he knew I was a "newbie" to elder law.  He generously coached me, and gave me many hints and tips.  He even spoke to my clients to answer a few questions.  Today, our firm still calls on Dale for help.  I'm thrilled to have discovered his firm at a NAELA Conference.
