Is it illegal to hire a hacker to find a website for you on TOR or even hire a hacker period?

I'm curious to find this out but I don't want to to get into any legal trouble. My brother pressured me into doing this but then again you can hire hackers to do illegal things for you. (e.g. If you hire someone to find a website by bypassing security, breaking into databases, or accessing private information without the owner's consent, it is a federal crime under statutes like the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) in the U.S. or the Computer Misuse Act in the U.K. according to google) He says I'm overthinking it but if I do this and the police shows up at my house were doomed. And I know you guys are probably going to say "why didn't you just ask google that before you came here?" Thing is I did but I'm doing this on a browser that leads to the dark web and I know if you make one wrong move its wraps so you have to be very careful. And besides I'm kind new to all of this so I don't really know the do's and don'ts of everything. What should I do?
