Liviu Gheorghe Negoiţă (born March 22, 1962) is a Romanian politician and lawyer, member of the Democratic Liberal Party and the former mayor of Bucharest's Sector 3.

Born in Brăila, Negoiţă completed his law degree in 1990, at University of Bucharest's Faculty of Law and was a practising lawyer. Aside from Romanian, he speaks English and Italian. He married Carmen in 2005, his wedding godfather being Adriean Videanu, a leader of his party.

Negoiţă won a seat in the Chamber of Deputies of Romania in the Romanian legislative election, 1996 on the lists of National Liberal Party - Democratic Convention. In 1998, he resigned from the National Liberal Party and joined the Democratic Party. In the 2000 elections, he was re-elected on the lists of the Democratic Party, being a deputy until 2004.

Liviu Negoiţă was the candidate of the Democratic Party for mayor of Bucharest's Sector 3, Bucharest's most populous sector, winning the 2004 elections, keeping his seat after he won the 2008 local elections with 79,05%. During his management, the town hall built 300 playgrounds and a large number of parking spaces. He lost the elections in 2012.

After the fall of the Boc government, Băsescu designated Lucian Croitoru as Prime-Minister, but the parliamentary majority voted against him, continuing to insist on Klaus Iohannis as Prime Minister. On November 6, 2009 president Traian Băsescu, associated with PD-L, nominated him as candidate for Prime Minister of Romania. His chosen cabinet was however almost identical to the one of Croitoru.
