Clermont, Florida Sex Crimes Lawyer
Other than murder, allegations of committing a sex crime are some of the most serious you can face. Even when you have only been accused, friends, neighbors, and society in general will judge you, unfortunately. Whether you have been accused of rape, child pornography, Internet sex crimes, or any sex-related offense, it is imperative that you seek capable legal counsel immediately. When you are in search of a Clermont sex crimes attorney who can achieve outstanding results regardless of the charges you face, rely on the team at Adams, Luka, & Benton. Our number one priority is protecting our clients' freedom, reputation, and futures.
As skilled criminal defense attorneys with more than 30 years of combined experience under our belts, we know that preventing and managing negative media attention is critical to protecting your reputation and innocence. Sex crimes are considered particularly heinous in most states in the U.S., and the criminal penalties for those found guilty are extremely harsh, even life-altering. We respect our clients regardless of the allegations, and work tirelessly to obtain the best possible result in every case.
We have secured outstanding results for clients accused of a wide array of sex crimes, including but not limited to:

In the case of sexual allegations, it is easy to fine yourself in a "he said, she said" situation. Many situations, unfortunately, are misinterpreted. Adults may fine themselves in a consensual relationship as far as sexual contact, later to have one or the other accuse one of the partners of rape or sexual assault. Young children are often coerced by vengeful adults into saying things or making allegations that are untrue. We know that many innocent people sit behind bars today, convicted of crimes they were wrongfully accused of. It is a sad situation, as lives are ruined and freedom lost.
Criminal penalties are extremely harsh, and may include years in prison, steep fines, a criminal record, and a requirement by the court to register as a sex offender. In essence, an individual may face lifelong consequences for an offense he or she did not commit. Those who are labeled as sex offenders are shunned by society, and find it impossible to live a normal life. As highly qualified criminal defense lawyers in central Florida, we fight aggressively on behalf of those accused of sex crimes, doing everything possible to achieve good results. From investigating the charges against our clients to exploring legal options and examining the prosecutor's case for potential weaknesses to determining whether police may have made errors which would be beneficial to the client, we leave no stone unturned in our efforts.
