A: It generally varies depending on the Arbitrator, how much evidence is presented, how long her/she spends analyzing the facts, how many witnesses and parties were involved in the Arbitration, etc. Expect at least a week, or longer for a complicated case.

Tim Akpinar agrees with this answer

A: Additionally, the forum-organization that oversees the arbitration could have rules and guidelines as to when the decision is due after hearing is held or documents submitted.
