Las Vegas Manufacturing Methamphetamine Defense Lawyers

Defending Clients From Drug Charges in Nevada

Methamphetamine is used by millions of Americans for its low cost and availability. This drug is illegal due to the high degree of physical and psychological addiction that can cause, as well as the severe and sometimes permanent mental and neurological damage to its chronic users.

Facing charges related to the manufacturing of methamphetamine in Las Vegas can have severe consequences, both legally and personally. Drug crime charges often come with significant penalties, including lengthy prison sentences, hefty fines, and a lasting criminal record. If you or a loved one is involved in such a case, having knowledgeable legal representation is crucial.

What is Manufacturing Methamphetamine?

Manufacturing refers to the unlawful production of methamphetamine. The manufacturer intentionally and unlawfully creates methamphetamine hydrochloride and other derivatives while in control of a chemical laboratory.

Manufacturers specialize in the illegal production of amphetamines owing to their relative analytical sophistication and the necessity of precise – and potentially hazardous – glassware and equipment.

What Qualifies as “Manufacturing Methamphetamine?”

Countless real-life examples of small-time drifters and drug addicts cooking batches of methamphetamine in their kitchens or bathrooms to satisfy their addiction abound, most of which may be traced to the relative simplicity and ease of producing small amounts of what has colloquially become known as “crystal meth.”

State legislatures have tended to move away from pursuing charges for the small-scale production of obvious levels for personal or family use as they have come to realize that producing quantities of methamphetamine often involves extraordinary dangers and hazards, both to the manufacturer and to others in the immediate vicinity.

That being said, manufacturing methamphetamine involves several key activities related to the production of the drug:

  • Production: The actual chemical processes used to synthesize meth from precursor substances, such as pseudoephedrine.
  • Possession of Precursors: Having chemicals known to be used in meth production can lead to charges, even without actual manufacturing.
  • Establishing a Meth Lab: Setting up a clandestine laboratory equipped for producing meth qualifies as manufacturing.
  • Intent to Distribute: Evidence of intent to sell or distribute the produced meth can escalate the severity of the charges, often inferred from the quantity produced and packaging materials.
  • Chemical Waste Disposal: Improper disposal of hazardous waste from the manufacturing process can also result in charges.

    "I switched and hired Mr. Goodman and could not have been more impressed with the outcome. You do get what you pay for."
    I met with Mr. Goodman who answered all my questions and knew his stuff.  I decided to hire a less expensive attorney but was not happy with the progress ended up being a waste of money with the other guy. I switched and hired Mr. Goodman and could not have been more impressed with the outcome. You do get what you pay for. I should have gone with my gut reaction at the beginning that would have saved me anxiety, time, and money. Don’t make the same mistake.
