FEE SCHEDULE
Our mission is to build capacity in parents and families in advocating, empowering support, and securing better resources for their children with special needs. New Table Consulting offers multiple services at different price points in support of this mission.
INITIAL FEE
An initial fee of $350 is required for those interested in obtaining full advocacy services from New Table Consulting. In exchange for this fee, New Table Consulting will conduct a one-hour initial meeting with the client, review the prior three years of education records, and conduct a one-hour follow-up meeting with the client. New Table Consulting will provide a verbal roadmap of next steps at the follow-up meeting. An additional charge will be assessed if New Table Consulting is responsible for obtaining records. Additional services may be contracted for as described below.
HOURLY RATE
New Table Consulting is also available on an hourly basis at a rate of $150 per hour. All activities - meetings, letter writing, observations, etc - are billed at the same rate, including phone calls and email correspondence that last/take more than five minutes. For meetings, time is billed from the scheduled start of the meeting until all discussions - even those that take place in the parking lot - are concluded.
TRAVEL EXPENSES
Travel of less than forty miles round-trip is included in the consultant’s hourly rate. Additional travel time will be billed at $75/hour or fraction thereof. Travel expenses for longer trips, including hotels and meals, will be agreed upon in advance.
CANCELLATION
The client will be responsible for a $150 cancellation fee if a meeting is cancelled without providing 24 hours notice. This fee may be waived at New Table Consulting’s discretion if the cancellation occurs due to a situation outside of the client’s control. Multiple cancellations may lead to a renegotiation of standard fees or a termination of the consulting agreement.
