In 1994, he started Larrain y Asociados Ltda., a law firm. In 1996, he was elected as a councilor in Las Condes, and re-elected in 2000, 2004, and 2008. He now serves as the President of National Renewal.
He is a member of the Larraín family.
He is married to Victoria Hurtado and has twelve children. He declares to be a devout Roman Catholic and member of the Opus Dei.
His son, Martín Larrian, ran over a man in his jeep and killed him, in September 2013 on a highway. After a 1st and 2nd judiciary process his son was acquitted of driving under the influence of alcohol. The final proves where that he phoned for emergency services for 50 minutes, then fled the scene, leaving two friends to account for what had happened. No immediate blood test was performed, hence no blood alcohol level was established. The two former friends were later charged with obstruction of justice. The case was largely public in social networks and media and inspired the 2016 film Much Ado About Nothing.
