Arrested for OUI, DUI, or Traffic Crime on Cape Cod? Act Fast for Your Best Defense

OUI (Operating Under the Influence) is among the most common serious driving offenses on Cape Cod. Massachusetts has strict laws: a conviction can lead to license suspension, fines, higher insurance, and even jail. For first-time OUI, you may qualify for a 24D program (probation and alcohol education) instead of jail—and we fight for the least disruptive outcome in every case.



We also defend OUI-Drugs charges—if you’re accused of driving under the influence of drugs, not alcohol, your rights are just as important.

How Sehic Law Defends OUI and Driving Offenses

  • Challenge the Stop: Was the traffic stop legal? If not, evidence could be suppressed.

  • Scrutinize Testing: Field sobriety and breathalyzer tests can be flawed—we dig into procedures and fight bad results.

  • RMV Hearings: You have as little as 15 days to challenge a license suspension after a failed or refused breath test—we act fast to protect your driving privileges.

  • Negotiate Alternatives: For first OUI offenses, we push for 24D program or hardship license so you can keep working.

  • Out-of-State Clients: If you’re a tourist or seasonal visitor, we can often appear in court for you—limiting or avoiding trips back to Massachusetts.

Motor Vehicle Homicide & Serious Cases

If you’re facing a felony (like motor vehicle homicide or OUI causing injury), you need a team with courtroom experience. We work with accident reconstruction experts, challenge every element of the prosecution’s case, and fight to reduce charges when possible—sometimes negotiating a negligent operation charge instead of a felony.

Your Questions, Answered Clearly

  • What are the penalties for OUI in Massachusetts, and can a lawyer help reduce them?

    Penalties range from fines and license loss to jail time. For first OUI, alternatives like the 24D program can shorten suspension and avoid jail. We fight for the best possible outcome.

  • Will I lose my license for a first DUI in MA?

    Possibly, but the duration depends on the case. With legal help, you may qualify for a hardship license or shorter suspension.

  • Do I need a lawyer for reckless driving or suspended license charges?

    Yes. These charges can bring criminal records, extra suspensions, or jail—an experienced attorney can often get them reduced to non-criminal outcomes.

  • What if I’m from out of state and got arrested on Cape Cod?

    We handle most proceedings for you—keeping you updated remotely and minimizing your need to travel.
