File a Legal Request to Remove the Bad Review of your Business
In certain limited cases, it is possible to remove unfavourable Google reviews from your business profile, primarily when the content is illegal. Typically, this pertains to instances of slander, which is against the law in the United States.
To report an unlawful review, access the Content Removal Tool and opt for the Google Business Profile Manager. Google will guide you through a series of questions about the review and the specific content you find objectionable.
Google treats these reports with utmost seriousness, given the potential legal implications. If you choose to submit such a report, you are essentially alleging illegal activity, prompting Google to follow strict protocols throughout the process.
Please note that if you have multiple complaints involving different Google services, each complaint must be submitted separately.

Google reviews play a major role today in the decision-making by customers about a business or service. Be it making a purchase or dining out at a restaurant or service or product, before deciding to find the best and right service provider or restaurant, most of us look for the reviews provided by the customers who had an experience with a particular business or service. Our decision is mostly influenced by the reviews in this case. Unfortunately, there are paid reviews and fake reviews so relying only on the reviews may not always be correct.
