Sir Leslie Stuart Brass (12 November 1891 – 17 November 1958), was a British lawyer and civil servant, legal adviser to the Home Office.

He was born on 12 November 1891 at 29 Trafalgar Square, Chelsea, London, the son of Lot Brass, mechanical engineer, and his wife, Elizabeth Harnor. He was educated at St Paul's School, and from 1910 to 1914 at Christ Church, Oxford.

Brass died suddenly of a heart attack in Western Road, Hove, Sussex, on 17 November 1958, and is buried in Brompton Cemetery.

The 1899 Brass family tomb, "a large and prominent memorial in an unusual Art Nouveau-influenced style" with sculpture by A. Stanley Young, is a Grade II listed funerary monument.
