U.S. law firm Hausfeld & Co. LLP and Avisa Partners, an antitrust consulting company, have launched the “Google Redress and Integrity Platform,” or GRIP, which encourages individuals and companies to come forward with civil claims of Google’s alleged anti-competitive behavior.
According to Bloomberg Business, depending on the nature of the case, Google could incur some steep fines. A lawyer at Hausfeld told reporters in Brussels that individual claims could force Google to fork over about 100 million euros ($112.8 million)—and this could not have come at a worse time for the tech giant.
