Plot summary
John Seeger works as a mercenary, and the CIA men John Dresham and Anthony Chapel hire him and his crew for an operation on Galmoral Island, a French-controlled territory in Southern Africa. The job goes wrong when members of the crew disobey Seeger, take the French Ambassador and his family hostage, and kill them. French troops attack, and Seeger's best friend Radio Jones is killed. Seeger returns to the United States and tells Radio's wife Shondra what happened, promising to look after her and her son Eddie. Shortly afterward, Shondra and Eddie are seized, and Seeger learns he must break Kamal Dasan, the son of gun runner Ahmet Dasan, out of Randveld Prison near Cape Town to get them back.

Did you know?!Facts and trivia about Mercenary for Justice (2006)
Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.
- Nu Image and Kill Master Productions sued Steven Seagal for $14 million, claiming he caused production delays on this film and on Today You Die by routinely arriving late, rewriting the script and letting his entourage interfere with the crew. The lawsuit was settled out of court.
- Director Don E. FauntLeRoy claimed that the day he arrived on the film the producers showed him a lawsuit that had already been prepared and was ready to file if Steven Seagal gave them any problems.
- The producers cut scene 101, which played right in the middle of the film and was, FauntLeRoy said, the tie-up of the movie; he talked until he was blue in the face trying to convince them it was a huge mistake.
