About Earl K.
Earl K. Mallory's path to the benchroom and the courtroom took shape over decades. He completed a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education at Auburn University in 1968 and returned to school later in life to earn his J.D. from Nova Southeastern University in 1990. Those two degrees bookend a professional life that spans private business, public hearings and law practice.
His early career included an operational leadership role in the construction industry. In 1985 he served as Vice-President of Operations for Jennings Construction and Land Development. A few years after finishing law school he moved into firm leadership, listed as President of Mallory Law Group in 1993. The sequence suggests a transition from industry to law, followed by management responsibilities inside a law firm.
Mallory has held public adjudicative positions at the county level. In 2005 he served as Special Magistrate for Code Enforcement in Palm Beach County, Florida. Two years later, in 2007, he performed duties as Special Magistrate for Animal Control in the same county. In those roles he presided over administrative hearings, assessed compliance with local ordinances and issued recommendations to county authorities.
On the litigation side, Mallory is admitted to practice in several state and federal jurisdictions. He appears on rolls for Florida and Colorado, and he holds admissions to multiple federal courts including the U.S. District Courts for the Southern, Middle and Northern Districts of Florida, the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado, the 10th and 11th Circuits, and the U.S. Supreme Court. That range of admissions has allowed him to handle matters that cross state and federal lines and to appear in appellate settings.
His professional resume mixes private-sector management, local government adjudication and courtroom practice. The magistrate appointments signal familiarity with municipal processes and code enforcement procedure. His firm leadership role indicates experience running a practice and supervising legal work.
Across those roles Mallory has operated at the intersection of administrative law and litigation. He routinely handled hearings and courtroom appearances in both state and federal venues. He continues to practice law, handling litigation and administrative matters in state and federal courts as of 2026.
