A paver patio isn't that hard to do, if you're willing to put the time/effort in yourself. There's not that much uber technical to it. Put down proper substrate, level everything, compact, level again, put down pavers.

Another option, and I don't know where you live so maybe it wouldn't work there, but I pay for a yearly subscription to Angie's list. Gives you user reviews of local contractors. I never hire anyone now that doesn't have a bunch of good reviews from other clients. Has helped me avoid bad contractors for years now, which has more than paid for itself in my opinion.

Google is your frenemy.
