Two Federal Courts Ruled Against Google Ads

In two separate rulings, federal judges concluded that Google illegally monopolized digital advertising, inflating costs for every business that bought ads on its platform.

“Google is a monopolist, and it has acted as one to maintain its monopoly.”

Judge Amit P. Mehta · U.S. District Court, D.C. · Aug 2024

“Google willfully engaged in a series of anticompetitive acts to acquire and maintain monopoly power.”

Judge Leonie M. Brinkema · E.D. Virginia · Apr 2025

Common Questions About Pursuing a Google Ads Recovery

This program is for U.S.-based businesses that directly paid for search text or display advertisements through Google Ads (previously Google Display Network) at any point from August 2016 to the present.

Recovery amounts depend on your advertising history. Federal law permits tripling of proven antitrust damages. Final outcomes will vary based on the facts of each case and the arbitration process.

Each claim is filed as a standalone arbitration proceeding, in accordance with Google's service agreement. This is not a class action. Your case is handled individually by the legal team.

There is zero cost to you. The legal team only collects fees if they win compensation on your behalf. Filing fees and litigation costs are advanced by the legal team.

Google Ads spend records can be downloaded directly from your Google Ads account. If you no longer have access, the legal team may be able to assist in obtaining the necessary records.

If your business changed ownership between August 2016 and the present, you may still be eligible. Eligibility depends on the terms of the acquisition or sale. Whether you acquired a business that ran Google Ads or sold one that did, the legal team can evaluate your specific situation and determine who may hold the right to file.

Many businesses use agencies to manage their Google Ads campaigns. If your business was the account holder and paid Google directly for the ad spend, you may still be eligible regardless of whether an agency managed the campaigns on your behalf. The legal team can help determine eligibility based on your specific arrangement.
