By Matthew Waldron, Victoria Yundt, Kristian Zanis, Jonathan Perrone, Corbin McVeigh, and Deeba Fahami

32 firms appear to be offering consumer arbitration services in California. Of those, only 11 firms follow the substantive requirements of §1281.96(a) , and of those, only three firms can be said to evidence robust and full compliance with the statutory regime, including §1281.96(b)’s formal requirements as to format, timing and depth of reporting.
