Working With Abbott Little

Working with us is efficient and cost effective. Our process is to first discuss the project with the prospective client, a meeting for which the client is never charged. We then submit a detailed scope of work, a time line and a “not-to-exceed” estimate based on the number of anticipated consulting hours needed. In certain circumstances, we may refer the client to another consultant better equipped to provide the requested service. Though we frequently work as a team in order to bring to capitalize on our combined experience, the client will be assigned one contact person to ensure streamlined communications.
