About Us
WILLIAM W. BRAUER, JR.
Founder and Managing Director
With over 2 decades of insurance experience, William (Bill) Brauer started Legacy Quote over 10 years ago. After excelling in hockey at the University of Michigan and being a former draft choice of the Montreal Canadians, Bill put his economics degree to good use at The Equitable. Bill rose quickly up the ladder and was promoted to District Manager within three years. Bill was soon lured away by American General to run the insurance offices for all of Minnesota, Wisconsin, North and South Dakota and Iowa. Seeing the opportunity to work with the highly affluent through unique marketing, Bill began building an insurance giant with Legacy Quote. Providing solutions to life insurance problems for prominent doctors, lawyers and business owners, Bill earned distinction as one of the highest producers with Lincoln Life, Travelers, Transamerica and United of Omaha.
A native of Edina, Minnesota, Bill continues to reside there with his three children Christie, Bo and J.R. He is very active in the community having served on the Board of the National Association of Life Underwriters, being a former President of the Edina Hockey Association and helping being green by serving on the Edina Recycling Commission. He is an avid fisherman and golfer and still continues to coach hockey.
Experience Matters
Legacy Quote brings the experience and expertise of a trusted, knowledgeable counselor to your computer or phone. Our Managing Partners include MBAs, Certified Life Underwriters, and Chartered Financial Consultants. In fifteen minutes you will most likely receive more knowledgeable information and facts than spending hours out of one of your days meeting with a life insurance agent.
We assist individuals in making the right choice when purchasing life insurance. This includes advice from the type of coverage required to the specific company and plan that is correct for you and your family.
We Provide a Personal Touch
It's no secret that higher-income professionals and executives expect a higher level of personal service. That's why a managing partner personally handles your account. Drawing from over 36 years of experience and with over $1 billion of life insurance in force, we provide you and your family with seasoned, plainspoken counsel to weigh today's myriad of options.
No one likes the idea of paying more and getting less. If our clients' experience is any gauge, you'll be quite surprised by the service and materials you receive.
