Looking for a $reasonable engineer in San Antonio...ASAP.

I have a property in Castle Hills; the city has my complete work summary/scope of work description...was approved and issued a full rehab permit.

Three main areas; I removed three walls and replaced with proper lvl's and support post's according to IRC and AWC tables and charts, turned a 2nd floor attic into liveable master bathroom & walk-in closet and expanded the adjacent room for a bigger master bedroom, and got rid of a bedroom floor above the family room to turn family room into 2-story ceiling height. Mind you the permit is issued for all the above...

I figured I'd reach out and request a partial pass framing inspection to confirm I'm good to go so the plumber & electrician can fasten whatever's needed considering most is all new framing. Inspector comes out and obviously"green" automatically defers everything to..."you're going to need an engineers letter".

So now I'm looking for an engineer who's not going to break the bank. Does anyone have any references or experience with ones in San Antonio? I'd greatly appreciate the referral. Thank you!
