There has to be a way to fight back. Maybe one could sue an arbitrator for not being impartial. I imagine that arbitrators are indemnified, but I can't imagine that indemnity extends to fraud. If anyone could successfully sue the arbitrator or their firm for fraud, then that precedent would surely make arbitrators a lot less comfortable acting on behalf of companies that hire them. This is a money game, and money is the only way it's going to get solved. It has to be less lucrative to behave badly than to behave fairly for anything to change.
