Juan José Lucas Giménez (Burgo de Osma, 10 May 1944) is a Spanish attorney, professor and politician in the People's Party.
Giménez was born in Burgo de Osma, Soria, Spain, on 10 May 1944. He graduated from the Universidad Complutense de Madrid with a degree in law.
Giménez worked as a professor in 1968 and 1969 and was also a tutor in Soria University.

He left the agency in 1982 to begin work in the Instituto Nacional de Colonización's sociologist group. He was Deputy Director General of Cooperatives in the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs.
The Cortes of Castile and León appointed Giménez as a Senator on 22 March 2001.
