VICTIM WITNESS CENTER

The Oklahoma County District Attorney's Office Victim Witness Center is here to provide support services to individuals who have been victims of crime or witnesses to criminal activities. Our advocates are here to help victims and witnesses navigate the criminal justice system, offering both emotional and practical support throughout the process. 

Our advocates are a bridge between victims and the legal system. They provide services that help people cope with the emotional, legal, and practical challenges that arise after experiencing or witnessing a crime.


Victims

The Oklahoma County District Attorney's Office advocates are dedicated to assisting you through the court process.  

Our advocates play a vital role in preparing victims' families and survivors for court. They lead the family through the criminal justice system, explaining each step along the way. This includes notifying families of court dates, their rights under Marsey's Law, victim compensation, where their loved one's case is in the process, answer questions and identify available resources. ​

Each homicide, sex crime and child abuse family will have an advocate who is assigned to you. Often, prosecuting a case takes time, maybe even years. Your advocate is here for you throughout the entire process.​

Witnesses

Our goal is to provide a comfortable and safe place for witnesses to wait for court. Appearing as a witness in any type of case can be stressful and inconvenient. We will make your time spent waiting for court as comfortable as possible.

If you are a witness, please note the following:

  • You are encouraged to park in a parking garage or parking lot. Even if you keep your parking meter plugged all day, Oklahoma City parking enforcement can still ticket your vehicle. The DA's Office cannot resolve parking tickets.
  • There are vending machines located in the Witness Center along with coffee and water. There are numerous restaurants within walking distance of the courthouse.
  • The restrooms are located out the door to the right and the left. Please notify a staff member if you need to leave the Witness Center for any reason, in the event we call your name for court.
  • It is important that you understand that children cannot be left unattended. Please remember that parents and/or guardians are responsible for their children.
  • If there are other witnesses waiting to testify on the same case, please do not discuss your testimony with the other witnesses.

If you have any questions, please contact 405-713-1630 and an advocate can assist you.
