Worthless $1500 initial consultation

I met Laura at a church meeting about estate planning and was favorably Impressed. I am elderly and experiencing health problems and wanted a consultation about placing property into a charitable trust or donating it for a charitable annuity. At present, the property is in a revocable trust and I ...am dissatisfied with one of my executors. Laura knew nothing about charitable trusts and referred me elsewhere. Further, she had determined without consulting me, that she would send two people, a man and a woman, one of whom I was to choose as a replacement executor! In addition, she would make medical decisions in the event I became incapacitated! Most attorneys do not charge or charge a modest fee for initial consultation. I paid her $1500 for this virtually worthless 2 hours. In addition, when I requested return of papers I left with her, there was a run around with a lost UPS delivery until I got the papers.
