Aggressive Legal Representation for The Villages Clients Charged with Sex Crimes

As mentioned earlier, the criminal penalties for a conviction can be extremely severe, depending on the offense an individual is accused of. Unfortunately, children may make up stories that are untrue, usually by being coerced by an adult. Two adults may be involved in a consensual sexual relationship, and one decides to cry rape. It is all too easy for an innocent person to be accused of a sex offense; sadly, a simple remark can result in the ruin of a life. In every criminal case, prosecutors must prove the defendant is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt; this requires proving each specific element of the crime.

Whether mistakes were made by police or false accusations, we aggressively challenge the evidence and work with our client to determine the best legal option to achieve the most desirable outcome.

Client Reviews

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.

Thomas Luka left a life-long great impression of lawyers. He was always professional, on time, and answered things honestly. From the start and during the 14 months it went on - Tom was very upfront and honest with me about the possible outcomes. The result was better than I had hoped for. Tom really over-delivered. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Marcela Giorgi
