Foley Palenscar Schortmann Insurance

About

Foley Palenscar Schortmann is a family-owned independent insurance agency with offices in Dedham Square and Norwood. It writes auto, home, business and life insurance for families and companies across eastern Massachusetts. Because it is independent, the agency can compare more than 20 insurance companies to match each client on strength, service, coverage and price, and its team is available to review existing policies and answer questions.

Thomas J. Foley founded the agency in 1936. It took its current name after partnering with the Schortmann Agency in 2019, and has since joined forces with Pollicelli & Mullen, Fay Humphrey, Pevear, John J. Ryan and, in 2025, Haskell Insurance Agency. Clients single out Steve and Kit Palenscar for personalized service. Referrals are the agency’s main source of new clients, and the team supports local nonprofits and businesses in the towns it serves.
