On his mother's side, he was descended from the Jewish merchant and court agent Ruben Michel Hinrichsen. Henri Hinrichsen was a distant cousin. He studied law at the universities of Leipzig, Berlin and, from 1885, Rostock. In March 1887 he passed his first law exam and became a trainee lawyer. In Rostock he was in 1891 with a dissertation on contracts for third parties to Dr. jur. PhD; at the same time he was admitted to the bar at the Güstrow regional court and as a notary in Güstrow.

Hinrichsen was involved in professional associations and sat on the board of the Mecklenburg Bar Association since 1903 ; In 1916 he was its chairman. At the 1907 Juristentag of the German Lawyers' Association , he and Max Hachenburg were the rapporteurs for the association's position on the draft of a Reich law concerning the amendment of the court system, the Reich civil procedure code and the fee structure for lawyers .

Since 1892 he was married to Margaret (h) e, geb. Brummerstaedt (1869–1918), a daughter of the Rostock doctor Wilhelm Brummerstaedt and granddaughter of Wilhelm Brummerstaedt . In his second marriage he married Anna, geb. Lübcke (1880–1974).

Of the couple's children, the lawyer Fritz Hinrichsen (1909–) emigrated to Santos in Brazil in July 1934 , from where he tried to assert his share in his parents' legacy.
