Manufacture of a Controlled Substance

If a person is charged with the possession, sale, or manufacture of illegal substances, he or she may
face severe criminal penalties for his or her actions. While many people understand the different types
of possession and what constitutes the sale of illegal drugs, some may be unfamiliar with the consequences of manufacturing controlled substances for sale.

The punishment for manufacturing illegal drugs often depends on the amount produced and the area in which the drugs were made. Such charges can have serious effects on a person’s livelihood, so it is important to consult an experienced criminal defense attorney for help with your defense. For more information on the manufacture of controlled substances and criminal charges, contact the Milwaukee criminal attorneys of Hart Powell, S.C. at (414) 271-9595.

Controlled Substance Charges

The punishment for manufacturing controlled substances often depends on:

  • The type of drug manufactured
  • The amount created
  • The amount of the illegal substance intended for sale
  • Where the drug was manufactured

If a person operates a drug lab near a school or church, the criminal charges may significantly increase. It is important to remember that the sentences for the sale, possession, and manufacture of illegal substances may carry significant criminal charges that can include punishments like incarceration, fines, probation, and other serious consequences.

Persons who are charged with a crime have the right to defend themselves in a court of law. If you have
been accused of a crime like the manufacture of a controlled substance, it is wise to have an experienced criminal defense attorney on your side.
