紐賓士域省律政司辦公室（英語：Office of the Attorney General；法語：Cabinet du procureur général）是紐賓士域省政府的一部分。 它負責為政府所有部門及機構提供法律服務。
律政司（Attorney General）是紐賓士域省最高級別的法律官員，自1784年紐賓士域省成立為皇家殖民地以來就一直存在。在當代歷史的大部分時間內，律政司都是監管司法廳（Department of Justice）的官員，並兼領司法廳長（Minister of Justice）的職銜。效忠派人士Jonathan Bliss於18世紀後期開始擔任紐賓士域省第一任律政司。
由2006年至2012年，律政司辦公室與司法廳分離。2006年2月14日，當伯納德·洛德（Bernard Lord）省長重組內閣（很大程度上是出於必要）時，律政司的基本職能與司法廳分離，以令其黨團會議中唯一的律師布拉德·格林能夠承擔更大的職責。司法及消費者事務廳（Department of Justice and Consumer Affairs）由此成立，從律政司手中接過「保護公眾利益」的責任。2006年10月3日，伯納德·洛德卸任，由Shawn Graham接任省長。Graham省長委任T. J. Burke為律政司兼司法及消費者事務廳長。然而，在2007年3月2日通過的重組政府部門的立法中，律政司辦公室與司法及消費者事務廳仍為兩個獨立個體。隨後2007年12月19日的一項法案，規定律政司辦公室應作為一個單獨的部門履行職責。[1]
隨後的省長大衛·奧爾沃德（David Alward）於2012年將這兩個部門重新合併為紐賓士域省司法及律政廳（Department of Justice and Attorney General）。[2]奧爾沃德省長於2013年將這兩個職分再次分離，並任命Ted Flemming被任命為律政司，Troy Lifford為司法廳長。
