I can say it was the best decision to seek Ms Arii’s assistance. This was my first DUI and the ordeal was really nerve-racking as I felt my life was over after the arrest. She explained to me very well what could possibly happen and I was kept informed and never felt I was given the run around like the first attorneys I called. She was very professional and very knowledgeable when it comes to DUI. I would definitely refer her to my family and friends. Thanks!

This was my first time in any kind of situation involving me going to court. Sei-Hee was able to put me at ease about the whole thing. She is knowledge, aggressive, timely, and responsive. I really appreciate hard work and dedication. She was able to get my case dismiss and I’m extremely grateful. I would recommend her to anyone.

I was faced with a legal situation (DUI) this summer and immediately turned to Google. After many searches for the Montgomery County area, Sei-Hee’s name kept popping up. I called her and after our initial phone conversation, I knew that she was the lawyer I wanted to hire. She made the process smooth and made sure that I understood all of my responsibility on my end. It was important to me to know what all I could be doing towards my case as far as which classes to take and how to proceed with my 90 day driving suspension. When it came time for my court date, she eased my nerves talking me through the process and what to expect. When I met her in the courtroom that morning I was immediately eased with her knowledge of the proceedings. I personally had a favorable outcome that was not anticipated. Sei-Hee did a fantastic job in preparing me for all outcomes because you truly don’t know what to expect prior to the courtroom. Regardless of what outcome I would have received that day, Sei-Hee was by my side and made me understand everything. I highly recommend her based on her skill, knowledge, and personal skills.

Amidst an ugly divorce and custody battle, I made two very selfish and bad choices and needed the services of Sei-Hee Arii in 2016. I have worked with private equity, contract, employment, IP, compliance attorneys in past and had no experience with criminal traffic offenses. Words fail to describe how effective, respected by the judges AND caring Sei-Hee is. I enthusiastically and HIGHLY recommend her to anyone in trouble with the law. See is thorough, no nonsense with prosecutors. And she actually cares about you and your case. From the two trials, 2016-2017, she saw that I got fair treatment and she achieve ideal outcomes for me and my family. I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone in a bind with the law.

Sei-Hee was referred to me by another lawyer and mutual friend and after my experience with her work I have referred her to several other potential clients. She is generous with her time, thorough and a creative problem solver. When it was clear that there was a possibility to settle our case out of court we proceeded to arbitration. When the arbitration was unsuccessful she taught us how to proceed to take over a large part of the work ourselves in order to save money and report back to her for advice on how to resolve the dispute in court until she was needed again at the end. I am in the process now of filling out the forms she sent me to update my mother’s will, create trusts and do end of life planning. Sei-Hee has a complete package of pre-visit information sheets that once filled out allow us to gather all the information in one place and help her give us the best advice possible.

In Court today, C. Sei-Hee Arii was successful in obtaining unsupervised probation before judgment for the reduced charge of Driving While Impaired by Alcohol despite my breath test result being more than 2x the legal limit exactly 0.20.

Not only she kept me out of jail but her advice during and after my case helps me to put my life back on track. Her deep professionalism and skill is so amazing. The way she [prepared] me for my case with a constant follow up and consultation was wonderful and final presentation during my court date was [unbelievably awesome]. Thank you C.Sei-Hee 0

Got my case dismissed.

Sei-Hee provided the best representation at the time when my son incurred repeated DUI violations. Not only was she a strong advocate for her client; she also was very [compassionate] and caring, a rare quality that allowed me to remain sane when hope was low. Because she was tenacious and persuasive she was able to influence my son to seek rehabilitation when he was not listening. In the courtroom, she was absolutely brilliant and had the knowledge and skill to get the charges [dismissed].

When I got my 1st DUI, I was worried. I did not know what to expect since I never got into the wrong side of the law. I knew I had to get a good lawyer to help me fight it in court. I decided to call Sei-Hee Arii and she gave me an appointment to go to her office. I saw down and she took notes while she was asking questions and explaining the whole process. This itself made me calmed and relaxed knowing she will do whatever it takes to fight on my behalf in court. She understood I was a student and gave me a great deal! To make a long story short, i did everything she asked me to do and she was able to convince the Judge to reduce my charges to DWI and best of all, my record was cleared! The money I spent was worth it. If [you’re] looking for the best DUI lawyer in Maryland then call Sei-Hee Arii. She is good [at] what she does and I guarantee you she will do whatever it takes for you to get a better trial. Thank you so much!
