I had a dui conviction in another state 11 months ago. My hearing papers were mailed to my old address. My license was suspended. Ari was able to get my license reinstated until my hearing as well as get me a new hearing date. This saved my job. In the end I was given a restricted license. She is one of the best and will fight for you, and 95% of the time gets the most lenient disposition. She was worth every penny. I strongly would prefer as the lawyer to see and retain. Thanks again!

She really cares about her clients and really was helpful… she answered all my questions and really pushes for the best possible outcome for her clients… she was able to get my charges dropped in a final protective order that could have gone either way thanks SEI-HEE

Sei Arii representative me in a 2nd DUI case. The charges were pending possible jail time. Ms. Arii did her homework before the court date and was able to represent me well. I walked away with probation and my life. Thank you for your assistance and I would recommend your services to anyone. You are an excellent attorney.

Although anonymous, I am not ashamed to say that I am a high school student. I was arrested on New Year’s Day, with a .08 BAC. I was given 4 tickets due to my DUI situation. My life was spiraling downwards because of the stupid decision I made, and I continued to agonize over the burden I placed on myself and my whole family until I met Ms. Sei Hee. She was an outstanding lawyer, speaking to me and my mother, what to expect, what to do and what not to do. She gave us as much information as she could possibly provide regarding my case, and the potential consequences I may face in court. Because of her, we took proactive steps as my court date approached, and a week or so beforehand, she gave me a call, telling me that they decided to DISMISS my case!!! I was overjoyed at this news, being ever so grateful to her. Today, I live my life learning an important lesson early in my life, and I am VERY thankful to Ms. Sei Hee for not just helping me out with my situation, but also for guiding me and my parents, reassuring us that everything would be ok.

I hired Sei-Hee to handle two cases for me. One in Virginia and one in Maryland. Both times, I felt comfortable knowing that I’m dealing with an attorney with a strong background in criminal defense. Throughout the whole process she was clear, honest, and available to be reached anytime. She constantly followed up with me to make sure she had all the facts to represent my cases. This was the peace of mind knowing that I could rely on Sei-Hee. The end result was a favorable judgement. I would highly recommend Sei-Hee for anyone in need of a criminal defense attorney.

Can’t complain she’s a really great lawyer. She [got my DUI/DWI dropped] in one [sentence] great knowledge knowing the outcome what would happen. Never won a case before, til I met Sei-Hee Arii she worth every penny.

Sei-Hee Arii is definitely an expert in her field. Her knowledge, expertise and professionalism saved my life. She was successful in obtaining a reduction of my charges from DUI to DWI. More importantly, she was successful in avoiding incarceration and convincing the prosecutor to change his recommendation against jail! In the courtroom, it was clear to me that folks were not prepared or represented nearly as well as I was. I felt terrible as I watched someone being handcuffed and taken away. Too bad Sei-Hee wasn’t his lawyer. I was blessed to have found Sei-Hee. I am so happy with the resolution and especially grateful that I placed my trust in her throughout the process. If a friend or family member ever needed legal advice I would definitely refer them to her. Sei-Hee is top notch!

Sei-Hee truly understood my case and was very kind. What struck me the most was that she always answered my questions, represented me and made sure that my case was presented fairly. She was upfront and honest about her approach and what could be expected and tried her best to represent me. In my case, she went out of her way to get the most favorable judgement and I cannot be more happy than that. If you run into any criminal related issues and would want to use a lawyer I strongly recommend Sei-Hee, she is professional, smart and wants the best for her clients.

Sei-Hee Arii will work hard for you. I was very overwhelmed with my DUI/DWI charges against me. I didn’t know where to start, I never been in trouble with the law before, but the stacks were against me. When you get charges like I did, you will get a ton of mail from law offices. I went to three lawyers, my case was hard to prove, and I felt all three couldn’t represent me the way I needed them to. Again, I was very overwhelmed, so I started to look online to do my own research. I came across Sei-Hee Arii’s page. I read her profile and reviews, and I was impressed. My case was tricky, and I was apprehensive about calling, thinking I may run into the same type of lawyer. Boy was I wrong! When I got the nerve to call, she was actually in the office and I was immediately transferred to her. Sei-Hee asked me to explain my case, and I did. I was soo upset about what happened, I couldn’t even explain my whole story without crying. She had a way of calming my nerves over the phone and ask me to come in to consult with her. I did. When I arrived, I didn’t have to wait long, the receptionist was polite and the office environment wasn’t cold. When I met Sei-Hee Arii in person, she was polite and professional. Her wall displays her achievements and honors, I was impressed. We spoke about my incident and she said something to me at the end that changed everything…that she believed me! Yes, she was willing to take on my case despite the odds against me! Sei-Hee didn’t want me to take the guilty plea. She had my best interest in mind. Yes, she will fight for the underdog! She fought for me and my legal rights. We was in and out of court for almost a year, or very close to a year. That’s how long it took and how hard she fought. Even outside the courtrooms, she never stopped working. She was always consistent with following up my case. Thanks to her determination and because she is a very good lawyer, my charges was reduced! No DUI/DWI record! Like I said before, the stacks where high against me. My livelihood was in jeopardy. If those charges stuck, I would have been in a very bad place. She proved my case and now I have my life back! I wouldn’t want anyone else to represent me but her! Sei-Hee loves what she does and it shows! If anyone needs a good, no GREAT LAWYER! Please, please contact her! You will not regret it! I can go on and on about Sei-Hee!!! I just want to say Thank You Sei-Hee for believing in me and fighting my case to the very end!!!

Ms. Arii has been very helpful walking me through all legal processes/steps for an accident DWI. She made time to help go over all the notices and made suggestions for me to do in order to have the best result. In the end I was able to receive a PBJ with unsupervised probation. I was so thankful to have someone I could call and discuss everything with and would take the time to listen to my concerns. Also being much more affordable than some other attorneys that I shopped around for.
