Estuve investigando más y en muchos lugares usan public prosecutor's office. Pero busqué en diccionario de términos legales de Limusa,Robb y encontré que Ministerio Público es Attorney Genral's Office y que fiscal es prosecutor. Pero Fiscal General es Attorney General y por lo tanto el Ministerio Público que es su oficina es Attorney General's Office.

agree  John Rynne
9 hrs
  -> Yes, it is also correct in Venezuela.
neutral  Philippa Hammond: attorney general is closer to the meaning, but I think 'public prosecutor' is a more 'international' (i.e. less country-specific) term
14 hrs
  -> Public Prosecutor is fine as well. But not Public Ministry.
