You can do it using Nuget Package GoogleMaps.LocationServices in C#.

Here is how to use it:

Install it using Nuget Package Manager Command
```
Install-Package GoogleMaps.LocationServices?
```
if you are using .NET 4.6 or below, instal older version like 1.2.0

Once installed use the below C# code

public static void GetLatLongFromAddress(string address)
{
    //replace APIKey your Google API Key here
    var locationService = new GoogleLocationService("APIKey");
    var point = locationService.GetLatLongFromAddress(address);

    var latitude = point.Latitude;
    var longitude = point.Longitude;

    // Save lat/long values to DB...
}?

That's it, simple to use and get Lat-long from address.

With the helpf of above API, you can also convert lat-long into address using C#.
