Question before beginning finishing a basement

I have a few concerns before I begin even thinking about potentially beginning finishing my basement. Some of the work I can do myself some I will need to hire out.

First concern the basement is already wired. The previous owner built the house and wired everything into the concrete block. If the basement were to be finished I would want the boxes within my new framing.

So I guess my first question is I do not want to sound dumb if I call an electrician explain what is there currently and what I want, and secondly I don't want to overpay for something that may not be that hard to do.

As far as I'm concerned all of the wiring currently down there can go unless there is an easy fix to just "extend" the boxes.
