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。
