How would Google be responsible? The company should know better than to do something without physical verification. Google is not responsible for the contractors stupidity and laziness.

Lawyers tend to go after "deep pockets", and Google, when queried for an address, pointed to the wrong location, contributing to the situation.
Plaintiff attorney will happily file suit and let the relative percentages of responsibility shake out in the litigation process.....
It's got very little to do with reality. Remember the McDonalds 'hot coffee in my lap' lawsuit?
