Not only may allegations of sexual misconduct result in a person being stigmatized in society and generally frowned upon, it may also result in the accused being required to register as a sex offender for life.

With more than 30 years of combined experience, our firm brings a proven track record for obtaining good results for clients accused of a variety of sex crimes, including but not limited to:
It is important that anyone who has been arrested or is under investigation for a sex offense contact a seasoned criminal defense lawyer immediately. Unfortunately, while these are some of the most serious criminal charges a person can face, accusations of rape, child molestation, or sexual assault are also some of the easiest for those who want revenge to make against an innocent individual. Children are often coerced by adults to make up stories or say things that are not true. It is important to avoid speaking with police without the presence of your attorney, as an innocent remark can be construed in a way that can be used against you. Police and prosecutors are not your friends; their primary goal is to charge you with a crime, and obtain a conviction.
We work vigorously on your behalf, protecting your legal rights, investigating the allegations against you, exploring the evidence and possible missteps made by police, finding weaknesses in the prosecutor's case, and developing the best possible defense strategy in order to protect your freedom and future. The moment you contact our firm, we will begin work to protect your rights and seek positive results.
When charged with any crime, time is of the essence. The sooner work begins on your case, the better the outcome. Our Sanford sex crimes lawyers will waste no time in beginning work on your case.

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.
