How a Google review gets removed: four steps
You only send the link to the review. Our four-step procedure prepares a reasoned case and files it through the right Google channel.
- Forensic analysis. We examine every disputed Google review for violations: false factual claims, defamatory statements, missing customer contact or privacy breaches.
- Legal line of argument. We build a dossier grounded individually in Australian law, not a template but a solid rationale for each review.
- Escalation to Google. Where a review may be unlawful, we file Google's separate legal removal request with a reasoned case, instead of relying on the standard flag alone. Google makes the final decision.
- Removal and aftercare. After successful removal we monitor the profile. If the same unlawful review reappears, we act again at no extra cost.
More detail: our process.
Reporting it yourself vs. with G-DEFENCE
A standard flag asks Google to check a review against its content policy. Where a review may be unlawful, we also use Google's separate legal removal request, with a reasoned case under Australian law. If you want to try it yourself first, read how to remove a Google review.
Legally compliant Google review removal
Each case is assessed under the uniform state and territory Defamation Acts, the Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Consumer Law. Genuine opinion, fair comment and true statements remain protected.
- Defamation law: false factual statements causing serious harm to reputation. A key ground for Google's legal removal request.
- Privacy Act 1988: where a review discloses personal information, the Australian Privacy Principles can support a removal request.
- Australian Consumer Law: for competitor and fake reviews, the ban on misleading or deceptive conduct and false representations.
