Description

Legal Writing: Process, Analysis, and Organization 9th Edition Linda H. Edwards ISBN 9798894103501

Legal Writing: Process, Analysis, and Organization, Ninth Edition by Linda H. Edwards and Samantha A. Moppett is an essential resource for students learning legal writing. As the only legal writing text built around a true process-based approach, the book presents legal writing as a logical, step-by-step sequence, helping students develop strong analytical and writing skills. Updated and streamlined for today’s learners, the Ninth Edition incorporates principles of adult learning theory and a “flipped classroom” model to maximize efficiency in both classroom instruction and independent study.

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 with no deduction if it reaches us by your semester return date, or after it's already overdue. Print a prepaid label (USPS or UPS, whichever is cheaper for your package) from your account's My Rentals page. Returning it EARLY, before your semester return date, deducts a 15% restocking fee and the label cost from your refund, the same as cancelling a shipped rental for a 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.
