Career
Stirling regularly assists journalists, lawyers and government officials with their combined efforts to prevent human rights abuses, wrongful detention, disappearances and other abuses of justice.
While attending Bond University Law School, Stirling became active in the Middle Eastern region when her colleague and friend was detained unlawfully. She drove the campaign that lead to his release.
Immediately thereafter, others in similar situations approached her, requesting assistance and so she founded the not for profit organisation Detained in Dubai. She was made Partner of Dubai and Cairo based law firm Nasser Hashem and Partners, but left the firm after five years. Stirling opened a Civil & Criminal Justice Law Company, Stirling & Partners, specialising in extradition and Interpol cases for expert witness testimony in UAE extradition cases and civil litigation suits as a "country expert". She is reported to be launching a membership-based program to provide emergency legal support and trial coverage in the UAE under the brand Proponence.
Activism
Stirling has published articles and videos extensively on social media, often covering debt collection harassment, social media laws, cybercrime laws and Interpol red notice abuse. She has publicly campaigned for the release of people detained in the UAE, notably David Haigh, Matt Joyce and Marcus Lee, Safi Qurashi, Scott Richards, Conrad Cliteroe, Gary Cooper and Farzan Atharii.
