Attorney Carlos J.R. Salvado Secures Dismissal in Federal Assault Case

Attorney Carlos J.R. Salvado, the founding partner and managing partner of the Salvado Law Offices, is representing Harrison Floyd in a closely watched criminal defense matter that has drawn national attention. As a Montgomery County, Maryland resident for more than forty years, Mr. Salvado brings deep local roots and extensive courtroom experience to high-stakes cases, and he is licensed to practice in Maryland state and federal courts as well as in Virginia. Recent reporting highlighted Mr. Salvado’s role as counsel for Floyd as questions surfaced about whether the scope of a presidential clemency order could affect an unrelated federal assault charge.

In public comments, Mr. Salvado emphasized the legal significance of the clemency language and its potential application to the federal case. Shortly afterward, federal prosecutors moved to dismiss the assault charge without prejudice, and the court approved the request. Mr. Salvado welcomed the dismissal and expressed relief for his client at a pivotal moment in the case. Known as an experienced litigator in bench and jury trials, Mr. Salvado has handled serious criminal allegations across Maryland and Virginia and has earned recognition for his work, including Elite Lawyer honors (2024 to present) and selection to Super Lawyers (2019 to 2022).
