AUGUSTA — The Attorney General’s Consumer Protection Division is recruiting new volunteer consumer complaint mediators for its spring class.
Training will begin on Monday, Sept. 28. Volunteers will mediate consumer complaints over the phone or by mail, in the Attorney General’s Augusta office.
The attorney general trains its mediators in consumer law and mediation techniques. Mediators are asked to volunteer approximately six hours a week on a schedule convenient to them.
During 2008 the Consumer Mediation Service recovered more than $650,000 for Maine consumers. If interested in volunteering, go to www.maine.gov/ag/ or contact Assistant Attorney General James A. McKenna at 626-8842 or jim.mckenna@maine.gov.
