A quick definition of mandator:

Term: MANDATOR

Definition: A mandator is someone who asks another person to do something for them. In legal terms, it can refer to the person who hires someone else to do a job for free. It can also be called a mandant or bailor.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A mandator is a person who delegates the performance of a mandate to another. In civil law, the mandator is the person who employs another (called a mandatary or mandatarius) in a gratuitous agency. The mandator is also known as a mandant or bailor.

  • A company hires a marketing agency to promote their new product. The company is the mandator, and the marketing agency is the mandatary.
  • A landlord hires a property management company to take care of their rental properties. The landlord is the mandator, and the property management company is the mandatary.
  • A person gives their car keys to a valet parking attendant. The person is the mandator, and the valet parking attendant is the mandatary.

These examples illustrate the concept of a mandator delegating a task or responsibility to another person or entity. The mandator is the one who initiates the relationship and entrusts the mandatary with carrying out the mandate. In each example, the mandator has a specific goal or objective in mind, and they rely on the mandatary to help them achieve it.
