CCW Safe: Real-World Self-Defense Protection Built by Those Who’ve Lived It

Since 2011, CCW Safe has provided legal self-defense support, deep expertise, and personal care to those who carry every day. Co-founder and CEO Mike Darter was an Oklahoma City police officer who was involved in an on-duty shooting during a high-risk drug warrant. The shooting was immediately ruled justified but two years later, Mike and his partner were sued in federal court. Without the legal backing of the Fraternal Order of Police, the financial fallout could have been devastating. When Mike retired from law enforcement, that protection disappeared.

The Police Union Model for Armed Citizens

CCW Safe was founded on the “police union model,” created by people who have actually been in self-defense shootings, investigated homicides, and lived through the legal aftermath firsthand. Because even a fully justified self-defense incident can leave you facing hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal expenses. CCW Safe changes that with upfront payment of all defense costs, an on-site critical response team, unlimited defense budgets, and zero out-of-pocket expenses. They handle everything from legal defense to financial and emotional support.

Critical Response When It Matters

The CCW Safe Critical Response Team includes former homicide detectives and investigators who respond directly to assist members after a covered self-defense incident.
