OnlyFans has hired longtime Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom partner David Eisman (pictured) as its new General Counsel, according to reports by Bloomberg Law. He is expected to join the London-based platform in the coming weeks.
Eisman, who has spent around 20 years at Skadden, currently leads the firm’s media and entertainment practice and is also a member of its M&A and investment management groups.
