Special Needs Children

Hi, I'm Dan Surprenant, a partner in the law firm of Surprenant and Beneski. We specialize in estate, tax, Medicaid, and special needs planning. If you, your child, or grandchild is a person with special needs, you must give thought to special needs planning. Special needs planning is a particular type of a estate planning to protect assets, so the person won't lose any needs-based benefits like SSI or medicaid.

It's also used to make sure that the money is managed properly and used only for the person with special needs. Many people, unfortunately, believe that they need to disinherit a special needs child or grandchild. That is not true. You may know that government benefits only provide for the very basics of life and the special needs child may need those assests more than their able-bodied brothers and sisters.

A properly-drafted special needs trust can provide a nest egg for the special needs childwhile maintaining their benefits.

Also, if you're the person with special needs and receiving an inheritance, or a lawsuit settlement, or, for example, lottery winnings, special needs planning can protect those assests so that they can be used for you and so that you won't be bumped off of your needs-based benefits. I'm a member of the Academy of Special Needs Planning and [xx], national organizations which help me to stay informed on this very detailed field.
