Description
A Guide to Human Rights Due Diligence for Lawyers Corinne Elizabeth Lewis ISBN 9781639052028
Business clients are increasingly turning to their lawyers for guidance on human rights due diligence (HRDD) as they confront a growing and complex web of legal obligations and soft-law standards. Governments, investors, and society at large now expect businesses to respect human rights across their operations and value chains, creating new and expanding opportunities for lawyers to advise on HRDD strategy, compliance, and implementation.
Designed for both U.S. and international practitioners, this comprehensive guide serves as an essential resource for understanding HRDD—from its foundational principles to the practical realities of putting it into practice. It equips lawyers with the knowledge needed to support business clients in meeting evolving expectations while managing legal, operational, and reputational risk.
Part I introduces the core elements of HRDD, including the due diligence process, lawyers’ ethical responsibilities, and key legal requirements. Part II focuses on implementation, addressing topics such as corporate governance, integration with compliance programs, grievance mechanisms, stakeholder engagement, gender-responsive HRDD, and consultation with Indigenous peoples. Part III examines emerging and high-impact developments that shape HRDD today, including supplier and value-chain risks, financial sector considerations, the intersection of environmental and climate issues with HRDD, and operations in high-risk or conflict-affected settings.
Through expert contributions, this guide deepens lawyers’ understanding of HRDD and strengthens their ability to help businesses respect human rights—advancing sustainable development and supporting the social dimension of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance).

Shipping & Returns
-
Fast, standard shipping
Most students receive their books in 3 to 9 business days.
-
Free rental returns, whenever you are done
Print a prepaid return label from your account whenever you have finished with the book, and drop it at the carrier listed on the label. Returning early costs you nothing: it is the same free label, and sending it back sooner is welcome. Just be sure it reaches us by the semester deadline to avoid late fees.
-
Purchase returns: 15% restocking fee
Purchases can be returned within 30 days in the condition you received. We will email a prepaid return label; once we receive your book, we refund the purchase price minus the 15% restocking fee and the return label cost. Original shipping is non-refundable.
-
Shipping costs calculated at checkout
Real-time rates are quoted at checkout based on your address and the books in your cart. Returning your book is always free.
Rental Terms
Return by December 28, 2026 for Fall 2026 rentals.
- Late Fees
- Books returned after the semester deadline accrue a weekly late fee of about 10% of the book's Brand New price, for each copy that is overdue. The rent you have already paid counts toward the book's replacement value (its Brand New price), so late fees stop once your rent plus late fees reach it. That replacement value is the most a rental can ever cost you. We email a reminder 48 hours before any charge, and any late fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout.
- Damage Fees
- Books returned damaged beyond normal classroom wear may be assessed a damage fee, capped at the book's replacement value (its Brand New price). Any damage fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout after we inspect the returned book.
- Return Shipping
- Returning your book is free: print a prepaid label (USPS or UPS, whichever is cheaper for your package) from your account's My Rentals page, whether you send it back early or on the semester deadline. Cancelling a shipped rental for a refund is different: there, the return label cost comes out of your refund.
- 30-Day Cancellation
- Changed your mind? Cancel an active rental within 30 days of your order from My Account → My Rentals. Cancel before your book ships and it’s free; once it has shipped, we refund the rental price minus a 15% restocking fee and the return label cost, released once we receive your book. Shipping is non-refundable.
