A procurator is the incumbent of any of several current and historical political or legal offices. The term, from the Latin, generally means one who has care of something in place of another. Hence, in canon law, a procurator acts as a sort of agent for a party in a case (as distinguished from the advocate/lawyer), and in some institutions like collegs and seminaries the procurator is effectively the business/supply/buildings&grounds manager.

The term may, more specifically, refer to one of the following:

• Legal procurator - one of the legal professions in Malta;
• Promagistrate - a number of different magistrates appointed in the Roman Republic by the Senate;
• Procurator fiscal - the local public prosecutor in Scotland;
• Procurator General - formal title of the United Kingdom Treasury Solicitor;
• Procurator to the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland - chief counsel to the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland;
• Procurator (office) - any number of historical officers charged with representing individuals and groups in legislative assemblies or courts of law;
• Teutonic procurator - a function in the Monastic State of the Teutonic Knights.
