Surprenant & Beneski P.C. - Plymouth, MA

In Plymouth, Massachusetts, we are Surprenant & Beneski P.C., a team committed to helping individuals, families and business owners across Southeastern Massachusetts put their affairs in order and protect what matters most. We assist with wills and probate, estate and trust administration, asset protection, minimizing taxation, business succession planning, planning for special needs and charitable planning. We recognize that every family and every estate is unique: some clients need a straightforward will; others require trust arrangements and detailed tax planning. We help clients weigh options, consider likely outcomes and choose the path that best aligns with their goals and values.

Founded in 1965 by Robert L. Surprenant, our firm has grown with the region; over six decades, we have built close working relationships with local banks, financial planners, care providers and community organizations. That local network allows us to craft plans that are practical to implement and to connect clients with services that are readily available in their area.

Our lead partners, Daniel M. Surprenant and Michelle D. Beneski, are certified as elder law attorneys by the National Elder Law Foundation. They are two of only 30 CELA attorneys practicing in Massachusetts and their training informs how we approach matters involving long‑term care planning, Medicaid qualification and the legal challenges many older clients face. Our attorneys and support staff collaborate on each matter so that clients receive well‑rounded counsel tailored to their particular circumstances.

Confidentiality matters to us. We handle sensitive financial and family information with discretion and with a focus on preserving relationships. We also make client education a priority: we explain steps and timelines, clarify legal terminology and ensure clients understand the advantages and risks of different approaches so they can make informed decisions.

Our practice emphasizes clear communication, practical problem-solving and responsiveness. Whether you are starting your career, raising a family, running a business, approaching retirement or dealing with elder care issues, we are available to provide meaningful, compassionate legal counsel. Contact us to begin the planning process – the sooner you start, the more options you will have to protect your future and those you love.
