- JumpCrisscross 3y ago> arbitrator is hired by the business and finds in their favor 99% of the time Wrong and untrue. Arbitration fees are typically paid for by the firm, yes, but this is a plus. The arbitrator is randomly selected or a consensus choice in every system I know of. Win rates for consumers vary by forum, from 60% with FINRA [1] to 22% with AAA [2]. For context, it’s about a third in court [3] and lower still (consumer v. corporate defendant) in small claims. (If you adjust for non-wealthy claimants, the skew in favour of arbitration leaps.)
