Heads up for Google Play developers: investigation into Google withholding funds after account terminations

Sharing this in case it's relevant to anyone here. A national law firm called Glancy Prongay Wolke & Rotter is investigating potential claims against Google for unlawful withholding of funds from developers whose Play Store accounts have been terminated.

The pattern they're investigating: Google terminates a developer account, freezes the remaining balance, and developers can't recover the money. Appeals get automated responses with no resolution.

If you've had this happen, the firm's intake page is here: https://www.glancylaw.com/google-play-developer

Disclosure: I'm doing marketing for the firm on this. Posting because it's a useful PSA for this community.
