r/legaladvice would be better

If your lawyer failed to do his or her job, you can file a complaint https://www.courts.ri.gov/PublicResources/disciplinaryboard/PDF/FAQ.pdf

But if they set reasonable expectations for you and you just don’t like that they think a plea is in your best interest, that’s not necessarily poor representation. Trials are difficult and expensive and juries are hard to predict. Is it in federal court or state court? That could also factor in.

Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
