Griffin is the place that Frank Ford runs..CB has mentioned his name in several posts. Should be a good place to get a fret job at. they had a lot of cool stuff there too the last time i was there

gryphon has a pretty good staff of guitarsmiths - frank does work there, and oversee's all the rest of the repair work, not the cheapest, but none better...unless...... you want the neck Plek'd. Thats about $300, and whoa baby....
Also, is it a new neck? Why does it need leveling? Maybe set up only? Or cleaning finish from frets?

Irwin Simogee is in the Berkley area, I'm pretty sure he's listed.
You can go catch fish for a man everyday and feed him, or you can teach him to fish.
why dont you study up and get the tools to do it yourself. Your inability to work on your own guitars at any level is a matter of education.
With the knowlege you can dress a neck as good as anyone, with experience you can do it in a timely manner. so take your time.
The amount of money spent on two trips to the so called expert, will pay for a new neck if you screw it up. So educate yourself on fret dressing. And setup
Even if you still want someone to do your neck now, you should start preparing yourself now for the next one.
