You should be able to find a consulting firm or a quality consultant for 
about $125/hr.  You may be able to find someone of quality at $100/hr but I 
would not bet on it.  I would not hire anyone that charges less than 
$100/hr, unless the work is very basic or you are trying to contract this 
consultant with a long term contract and guaranteed work.
