string groupName = "MyGroupName";
SPWeb web = SPContext.Current.Web;
//Check if group exists in the web
if (web.Groups.OfType<SPGroup>().Count(g=>g.Name.Equals(groupName, StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase))>0)
{
//Get the SPGroup by group name if exists
SPGroup group = web.Groups[groupName];
}
