Bill Weinstein Sues Verve To Be CEO Again

Just over a week after Bill Weinstein left Verve, the former CEO of the agency he co-founded wants his old job back – and he’s going to court to get it.

The breach of contract lawsuit filed in LA Superior Court today by Weinstein clams he was kicked out earlier this month for “without any notice, reason, cause or an opportunity to cure.” To that end, the ex-Endeavor literary agent is seeking a court injunction against Verve and co-founders Adam Levine and Bryan Besser rendering his firing DOA, at least until the legal action he began today is dealt with.

If granted, such an injunction would put Weinstein back in the CEO seat for the agency he helped create 14 years ago. On top of that, with Verve not naming anyone to the CEO job since Weinstein was shown the door on February 19, Devon Schiff, Matthew Doyle and Jake Dillman left the company too. The speculation is that Weinstein would be forming a new company with the trio first on board
