Criminal Representation for Bushnell ClientsRegardless of your guilt or innocence, it is imperative that you have a capable and aggressive criminal defense attorney on your side. Police and prosecutors are vigorous in their efforts to "crack down" on crime, and may violate your rights in the process. Police often out step their boundaries, which could be beneficial in your case. Prosecutors have the burden of proving you actually committed the offense you are accused of, which requires proving all elements of a specific crime. We have the experience, skill, and committed approach necessary to reach good results. We will perform our own investigation, examine the prosecutor's evidence for potential weaknesses, interview witnesses, and do everything necessary to develop a solid defense on your behalf. Ultimately our goal is to prevent the filing of charges, have charges dismissed or reduced, or prevent a conviction should your case go to trial.

I would like thank my attorney Thomas Luka. I knew from the beginning I had the right guy in my corner. While celebrating with family and friends at a Public Park in Seminole County, a fight broke out among various people. Myself, and a good friend, broke up the fight and the instigators left. Six months later, I was wrongly accused as the person who started the fight. The first attorney I hired could not even get a response from the State Attorney handling the case. Someone referred me to Tom and I felt comfortable at his demeanor and reactions.
After conversations with Tom, who knew I would settle for nothing less than a FULL DISMISSAL due to my innocence, I hired him. His firm Adams, Luka, & Benton did the due diligence by interviewing witnesses and the police who were on the scene, as well as starting a dialogue with the State Attorney. After gathering statements from witnesses, Tom was able to present a strong argument on my behalf to the State Attorney on why the case should be dismissed. If the State Attorney was not willing to dismiss the case, Tom was ready to take the case to trial.
The result by Thomas Luka: Case Dismissed.
I am 53 years old with a spotless record and glad to keep it that way thanks to the time, effort, hard work, and professionalism of Adams, Luka, & Benton.
