What is the most expensive billable hourly rate you've seen billed?

ex - legal, medical, accountant, engineer, architect, etc.


- Got to thinking when I read an article about a NYC Criminal Attorney who bills at $750 per hour. Joe Tacopina.

In a previous life, we used attorneys that would bill $450+ an hour.

That was more than what we billed for a day, and we were doing all the work.

Partners at Deloitte & Touche on their Actuarial side back in '98 were billing out at $950/hour. Couldn't imagine what they are billing out now.

My wife's uncle was an upper executive for a top auto company. He retired and began consulting for $800/hour mostly in Mexico and Germany.

I used to quote out $420/hr for a larger oil and gas service rig. Add on 50% for anything over 10 hr.

The going rate for luxury charter airplanes is about $8000/hr. I’ve never chartered, but family has been in the industry for some time.
