Sumter County, Florida

As seasoned criminal defense attorneys in Sumter County, we know that being investigated or arrested for a crime is a frightening experience. Whether you live in The Villages, Wildwood, Bushnell, or any nearby city, you may find yourself in a precarious situation if arrested on charges of DUI, shoplifting, theft, domestic violence, or any criminal offense. The thought of being found guilty and potentially facing jail/prison time is stressful, to say the least. At Adams & Luka, we provide exceptional legal guidance and support, always working toward the best possible results for each client we represent. We urge anyone who is under investigation or has been charged with a crime to contact us at once at (352)793-2100 or (352) 787-2101.

People are wrongly accused of crimes they did not commit every day in our country. Whether a sex crime, drug offense, or something as serious as armed robbery or arson, the criminal penalties are extremely harsh for those convicted. Perhaps you made a terrible mistake, and now fear your freedom may be in jeopardy. Regardless of your situation, every person is presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. We work vigorously to provide our clients with the outstanding legal representation you deserve.

Having more than 30 years of combined experience under our belts, we have a proven track record in representing clients charged with a variety of crimes including, but not limited to:

• Drug offenses including possession, manufacture, and distribution
• Sex crimes including child molestation, statutory rape, and Internet sex crimes
• Felony drunk driving, child endangerment, and other DUI-related offenses
• Juvenile offenses
• Violent crimes including arson, domestic violence, murder, and carjacking
• Theft and property crimes including home invasion, auto theft, identity theft, and armed robbery

While a conviction for certain crimes will result in punishment that is less harsh than other more serious crimes, it is important you speak with an experienced criminal defense lawyer right away.

Many people who have been charged with a crime do not realize there is more at stake than losing their freedom. Not only may you face criminal penalties if found guilty, your reputation, career, and even relationships may be in jeopardy. At Adams & Luka, we are highly familiar with central Florida's criminal justice system; we understand how police and prosecutors work, and know what it takes to fight effectively on our client's behalf. Police are not "above the law" and may make mistakes. In fact, mistakes can be made by anyone at any point during the process, from prosecutors and judges to jurors. Our job is to thoroughly investigate your case, determine if mistakes may have been made, analyze the evidence, and help you determine the best legal option for your unique situation. Should your case go to trial, we will develop a vigorous, effective defense strategy in an effort to protect your freedom and future.

The absolute worst thing you can do is to do nothing, or believe you can represent yourself. Police are extremely talented when it comes to getting those suspected of a crime to incriminate themselves. Prosecutors are relentless, and will work hard to break you down. The criminal penalties for a conviction may include jail/prison time, steep fines, a criminal record, driver's license suspension, probation, community service, and more depending on the offense you are accused of. Don't put your freedom and future at risk. Contact Adams & Luka today for a free consultation at (352)793-2100 or (352) 787-2101.
