Charged with a Felony in Clarksville, TN?
Any crime is considered serious, but in cases of charges being filed and the potential penalties, felonies are significantly dangerous than misdemeanors. A misdemeanor is a crime punishable by up to one year in jail, whereas a felony is a crime punishable by more than a year, and often multiple years, and the sentence is usually served in state prison.
Depending on the severity of the crime and the defendant's prior criminal record, life imprisonment is also a possibility for certain felony convictions.
What are Felony Classifications in Tennessee?
In Tennessee there are several classifications and different penalties for felonies including:
- Class C felonies, such as cases of intentional aggravated assault can result in 3-15 years in prison if convicted
- Class B felonies, such a robbery/theft and certain lesser drug crimes can result in 8-30 years in prison if convicted
- Class A felonies, such as more serious drug crimes and certain sex crimes charges, often result in between 15-60 years in prison if convicted
- Capital crimes, such as murder or criminal homicide, often result in life imprisonment or the death penalty if convicted.

“Jeff Grimes is an absolute rockstar!”
Jeff Grimes is an absolute rockstar! I’ve had some not-so-great experiences with lawyers in the past, but when I found myself in trouble, Jeff was the first person I called. From the very first phone call, he was super open, honest, and set realistic expectations. I was already feeling good about hiring him, but at my arraignment, he did more for me than most lawyers do throughout the entire case. That’s when I knew I made the right decision. Edina (she was amazing and I’m so grateful for her honesty and calmness which helped with my nerves) and Jeff, along with everyone else I’ve worked with, have made me so happy I trusted them. For me it's not only about the resolution (I plead out) but the honesty and openness, so if you prefer that too then Jeff is your guy.- Derek F. -
