Newark, NJ (1888PressRelease) April 26, 2018 - Steven Sirot and David Slater, Co-Founders, College Benefits Research Group (CBRG) were invited to present at The 4th Annual Civil and Divorce Mediation Seminar of the New Jersey Association of Professional Mediators (NJAPM,) held Saturday, April 14, 2018.

Mediation is the process in which a trained neutral person, called a mediator, facilitates the resolution of a dispute between two or more parties. Mediation is non-adversarial with the objective of helping the parties reach a mutually acceptable agreement and can be used to resolve any dispute, but most commonly is used in family/divorce and civil matters.

Sirot and Slater were invited by Steven Boyd Menack, the Founder and a Past President of the statewide NJAPM, to present on “Navigating and Understanding the Pitfalls of College Choice and Financial Aid Issues and Considerations for Separating/Divorcing Clients.”

Steven and David have done webinars for bar associations and possess an in-depth knowledge of key issues facing separating/divorcing clients with high school and college age children, and offer language for mediators to use on concepts which relate to the post-secondary educational process, college planning, college costs, how to maximize the financial aid from colleges and minimize the overall college expense.
