Why Choose Us
See how our time-tested divorce mediation programs infused with law and psychology will save you significant time, money, and stress.
Cost & Time Effective
Our services cost a small fraction of using lawyers regardless your circumstances. And everything will be finalized in much less time than the eight to fifteen months typical when using lawyers in the court-based system.
Private & Personalized
We include everything you decided during mediation in a personalized and legally-binding settlement agreement and prepare all required court documents. You keep control, instead of surrendering it to lawyers and a judge. You and your spouse will never have to go to court.
Reduced Hostility and Stress
Unlike traditional lawyers, we use our expertise in psychology to reduce the hostility and stress common to divorce and legal separation. This reduction of hostility and stress benefits both parents and children alike.

What Does the Mediator Do?
Unlike other mediators, ours have backgrounds in both law and psychology. They are expert at helping divorcing, legally separating, and unmarried coparenting couples make fully informed decisions, communicate and negotiate effectively, explore different options for resolving disagreements, and provide legal, financial, tax, and other information regarding all the matters involved in their situation. They are also expert at reducing the hostility and stress common to divorce and legal separation. After all matters have been resolved, our mediators prepare a legally binding settlement agreement and all required court documents.
Divorce Mediation FAQs
Q: How can I get my questions answered?
During your free consultation, our Mediator will answer your questions and explain how our time-tested mediation and court document preparation services work.
Q: How much do your services cost?
Every situation is different. That’s why our Mediator will give you a written cost estimate after learning about your particular situation and determining which of our Low Cost programs best serves your needs.
Q: Can I come to the consultation alone?
It’s important for both you and your spouse/coparent to get information about our services at the same time and required for our consultations.
Q: What happens at a free consultation?
Our mediator will answer your questions, make sure he understands your situation, and because everyone’s circumstances are different give you a written time and cost estimate.
Q: Can we still mediate if one of us has already filed for divorce or legal separation, and/or retained an attorney?
Yes, it never too late to avoid the hostility, stress, and substantial cost involved in using separate adversarial lawyers and court system.
Q: What if one of us doesn’t live in Arizona?
Not a problem. Under Arizona law, only one spouse must have resided here for 90 days or more, and we can mediate your situation by email, teleconference, and/or videoconference.
Q: What if one or both of us wants help from an independent attorney?
With us, employing an independent attorney is an option but not a requirement. In fact, we provide all of our clients with a list of attorneys who are expert in divorce matters, do not charge any upfront retainer fees, and act as consultants rather than combatants.

work with us
The professionalism, organization, ability to completely explain and make aware of all the options possible were kindly delivered by Oliver. I would not look anywhere else for a better mediator
Judy Barreto

Oliver and his staff made this difficult time in our lives so much easier. The approach to divorce was handled with concern for our emotional, as well as financial, well-being. We both came out feeling as though we were treated fairly and given sound advice for going forward.

Allen Lorenzi
Former Client
I’m Barry Brooks and I confess I have not worked with Oliver Ross and his team at Out of Court Solutions. But the reason I’m writing is I have had several of my friends do so and have had terrific resolutions for all parties involved. No hostility often typically found with divorce attorneys. And they feel that they saved themselves a lot of aggravation, time as well as money. Very highly recommended!
