Frankie McCarthy joined the School of Law in June 2007, having previously worked as a solicitor at Simpson and Marwick WS, specialising in civil litigation. Her principal teaching and research interests lie in private law, particularly property law, family law and the human rights aspects of both.

She completed her PhD in August 2010. Her thesis, entitled “Article 1 of the First Protocol to the European Convention on Human Rights: the Evolution of a Right in Europe and the United Kingdom,” employs a structured analysis of the jurisprudence of the Strasbourg and UK courts to critically examine the practical application of the right to peaceful enjoyment of possessions. In family law, she has been carrying out work on the legal regulation of non-marital cohabiting relationships and the human rights implications of religious expression in an educational context, amongst other things. She is also interested in the law of succession.
