How much does arbitration cost at the MAA?
The cost of arbitration depends on the size and difficulty of the case. In particular, costs depend on the amount claimed, the hearings required, and the number of arbitrators appointed. The components of cost are the fees of the MAA and the arbitrator. Nonetheless, the overall cost of resolving disputes through arbitration is typically much less than court litigation because lawyers spend less time preparing the case and the decision is made at an earlier date.
