This is too large for a small claims court, and too small to retain lawyers and suit Google. But the USA has another, well worn, route - class action lawsuits.

This is too large for a small claims court, and too small to retain lawyers and suit Google.
But the USA has another, well worn, route - class action lawsuits.
This seems ripe for class action, where the class is everyone who has been locked out of AdWords without reasonable explanation, or reasonable reason.
What is required is a lawyer/firm to assess the amount at stake and winnability, for them to get a representative case (this one is good) and to recruit thousands or tens of thousands of members of the class. The lawyers get a huge percentage of any damages, but the class members get rewarded too, and the main issue is the Google will take notice and change their behaviour.
In other countries we can use legislation to change the way Google operates. Check the jurisdiction of your contract with them - and use the appropriate system.
- erichocean 15y agoThis is the best idea/solution I've read yet, and a clearly appropriate way (at least in the US) to deal with Google on this issue. Well done!
