Can I ask, why not just use a pre-made one and alter it? There are 38 here, http://www.1stwebdesigner.com/resources/38-jquery-and-css-drop-down-multi-level-menu-solutions/ - One of them should fit your needs + its free!

I would rather get it professionally done.

You seem to have a false mental connection that a free jQuery plugin is bad, compared to a 'custom' written solution. Custom written is no more 'professional' or better quality, considering how many excellently coded plugins are available.

WHAT?!?
You clearly don't appreciate the unbridled brilliance that is free open source software...
Advantages to open source:


Free.
Support from the community - if people are using software, people are understanding software. Therefore, people can help you use software too.
Updates released far more frequently; developers are working because they want to.
Developers are experienced adults - 15+ years development experience in the vast majority of cases.
No product licensing (except GPL), software isn't locked down.
Free.

(Dis)advantages to paid development:


The code will be of a low quality* - the developers here have had, at best, 5 years experience.
Will attempt to rip you off for as much money as possible.
Lack of support.
In a desperate bid to justify the wasted expense and fix the problem, you will hire another developer.
This developer can and will, very justifiably, charge far more**.

* in comparison to community supported open source projects (i.e. every programming language ever, the entire of Linux, etc.) - Don't h8 me, developerzz.
** I say this because the second developer will have to spend days rifling through poorly coded scripts which probably don't work and/or are filled with messy, unstable, untested workarounds to issues an experienced devloper would fix in an instant.

I believe I've pretty much made my point...
If you still want to throw money at the problem, I salute you for going by principle as opposed to... You know... Practicality or financial stability, reasonableness, intelligence...

If you can get a free script that suits your needs, I would use it!

jQuery itself is free!
