Drug Manufacturing

Innocent until Proven Guilty

Drug manufacturing charges can affect anyone involved in the production or cultivation of any illegal narcotics. However, in order to be charged with this offense, a person does not have to be involved in the process itself. If someone assists another in obtaining certain materials needed to manufacture illegal narcotics, then that can be the basis for a manufacturing or distribution charge.This includes items such as marijuana seeds, grow lights, or other cultivating supplies used in the production of marijuana. Also, being in possession of certain amounts of drugs with pseudoephedrine as the main ingredient (i.e., methamphetamine, cold medication, or allergy medication), can result in drug manufacturing charges. When facing any type of drug-manufacturing charges, obtaining an experienced lawyer is absolutely essential.

Penalties for Drug Manufacturing

The penalties for drug manufacturing can range from probation to life in prison, depending upon the degree of the offense. Determining the degree of criminality is based on the acts committed and the amount of the drug possessed. For instance, if someone is found with more than one ounce but less than five pounds of cocaine, along with scales and bags, then they can be charged with a felony that results in a mandatory minimum three-year prison sentence.

Defenses against Drug Manufacturing

There are many ways Fred Sisto can defend a client charged with drug manufacturing. For instance:

  1. The evidence may not prove beyond a reasonable doubt that there was intent to manufacture the drug in question.
  2. The charges can be pleaded down to possession instead of manufacturing. This will result in the defendant receiving less severe penalties.
  3. Probation can be negotiated as a penalty instead of jail time.

Hired Mr.Sisto to handle a case of mine a couple of months ago and while the service was okay the customer service was awful. When I had inquired about a charge I was unsure of on my bill, Mr. Sisto immediately got defensive and had the unprofessionalism to ask me if I “was high” for asking this question. I wonder if Mr. Sisto asks all of his clients this question or only the ones who have jobs in the cannabis industry? Regardless, I don’t believe this was an appropriate question to ask, regardless of the industry one works in, and therefore Mr. Sisto needs to heavily work on his customer service. Edit: Mr. Sisto had the UNPROFESSIONALISM to reach out to my family and ask them to ask me to take down my review instead of reaching out directly towards me when it was I who was his client, not my family. Clearly speaks to the unprofessionalism surrounding this practice. This has not been the only time Mr.Sisto has gone directly to my family instead of me, his client, for important legal matters and I will not seek out his services again. For those who may not understand Spanish, the email starts with “You should speak to your daughter regarding the review she has just published.” Edit to Response: As an attorney, one should be able to make appropriate questions and comments regardless if a client is “uncooperative” or “disrespectful.” The fact that rather than apologizing for the awful interaction with your firm, and I was not released “within hours” as you claim shows how low value your firm is and how you openly instead chose to harass my family through email for my initial review rather than actually revomy case which I ended up doing and you chareged me for . Regardless of results, your character speaks volumes and anyone who reads this would know better than to give their money to an awful person such as yourself. What a shame

I called Mr. Sisto a few weeks back and he returned the call immediately! I asked a few questions and he clearly explained the options for one of my employees. He then followed up with a detailed proposal. He was completely knowledgeable, helpful and insightful. If I ever had to use him I would feel VERY comfortable with his representation.

Although I don't know Fred, he has my appreciation in his fight for my liberty. Mothers against drunk driving have ruined as many lives as they have saved. We need bread and butter laws in N. J ! Stopping moterists assuming they are breaking a law is against my rights. N. J. Is a police state with a cop on every corner. From the unjust gas tax to the corruption in Trenton, we need more attorneys like Frederick Sisto. He is aware of the people's shrinking liberties.
