Almost All Pressure Cooker Lawsuits Settle out of Court, says AttorneySanta Clara, CA Pressure cooker retailers and distributors are literally under pressure to settle defective pressure cooker lawsuits. “We have successfully gone after the retailers and distributors here in the U.S. because the manufacturers in China are hard to reach,” says attorney Kirk Pope at Pope McGlamry law firm. “They all settle out of court, and most of them very quickly.
