We are living in the some of the most unprecedented times this planet has ever seen. Here and now, atrocities are happening – from the epidemic of child sex slavery and human trafficking, to the erosion of fundamental values and civil liberties in countries both large and small.
Leigh Dundas is known the world over for her blazing and fiery speeches in defense of freedom, liberty, and those less fortunate. A force to be reckoned with, she has been touted as a firebrand, a one-woman legal hurricane, a freedom fighter extraordinaire, and – not least – a riveting on-stage magician who never fails to leave the audience electrified with her stories of righting some of the biggest wrongs that have visited the planet this century.
If you are a lover of justice and sitting in her audience, Dundas will without fail have you on your feet – cheering for Freedom and the underdog through multiple standing ovations. And for those on the wrong side of liberty, the Dundas name is synonymous with her no-holds-barred, positively nuclear presentations before school boards and oversight committees … that often leave the targeted miscreant resigning or being fired after she excoriates them (as occurred after Ms. Dundas took on the OC Public Health Officer in the Spring of 2021, the second-in-command at the CA Dept. of Public Health in 2019, and most recently, the head of the FAA in 2022).
Having spent the last decade fighting the criminal cartels responsible for running child brothels in war-torn regions of Asia – where radical Jihadis to this day ply their trade by detonating bombs daily, and where local governments often hamstring more than help – Leigh was forced to develop creative “outside-the-box” campaigns in order to succeed on a battlefield where others were failing.

Leigh has also devoted significant time to a modern-day “Sodom & Gomorrah” region comprised of 140 child brothels along the Thai-Malay border – traveling in excess of 100 mph to avoid roadside bombers, in order to provide assistance to the children trapped there and embed a film crew to document the horrors of the child-sex trade (until Thailand’s coup d’etat forced a retreat).
In 2020, Leigh took the lessons she learned – fighting Asian criminal syndicates that were hell-bent on destroying children – to the streets of America, where she joined with others to defeat an even greater threat: a second Holocaust designed to eradicate our very humanity, and crush any who would speak against it. To which Leigh resolutely believes: Fiat Justitia, Ruat Caelum … Let Justice Be Done, Though the Heavens May Fall.
Just Stand Up
In her debut memoir, 'Just Stand Up – My Fight for Freedom From the Brothels of Asia to the Streets of America', Leigh Dundas takes readers on a riveting tour as she wades into the darkest corners of child sex slavery in radical-Islamic-controlled regions of southeast Asia, where Jihadist’s bombs are exploding 330 times a year amongst towns whose only claims to fame are the hundreds of child brothels lining their dirt alleys.
Just Stand Up is a far cry from most books written by attorneys. Penned with healthy amounts of humility and self-deprecating humor – and intentionally interweaving anecdotes from the author’s younger years with chapters that shine an unflinching light into the most harrowing corners of human trafficking – it balances the evils that man can perpetrate against the ever-present truth that humans can do better for their brothers, sisters and children.
