About Us

Where Fiduciary Duty Meets Forward-Thinking Strategy
At Laurus Financial Group, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all advice. Founded on the principle that great financial planning is both deeply personal and rigorously strategic, Laurus offers high-net-worth individuals and families a boutique experience backed by institutional-quality resources.
Led by partners Craig Weinstein, AIF® and Amir Barar, CRPC®, AIF® Laurus blends decades of combined experience with a dynamic, forward-thinking approach to wealth management. Craig and Amir work side-by-side with clients to design customized strategies that align with each family’s unique goals, legacy plans, and tax landscape.
What Sets Laurus Apart
Advisor-Led & Client-First
Unlike many firms built around products or quotas, Laurus is advisor-owned and client-focused. Our fiduciary responsibility is the foundation of every decision we make — and we act on it every day.
Deep Strategic Expertise
From advanced tax strategies and direct indexing to structured yield notes and insurance-backed planning, Laurus delivers high-impact advice that addresses both short-term outcomes and long-term wealth preservation.
A Dual Perspective
With Craig’s background in advisor transitions and structured planning and Amir’s strength in portfolio construction, investment analytics, and risk management, clients benefit from a well-rounded team that understands both sides of the financial equation.
Embedded in a Premier Network
As part of Concurrent Advisors, Laurus leverages an industry-leading RIA platform while maintaining complete independence. Craig sits on Concurrent’s Board of Advisors, Investment Committee, and Marketing Sub-Committee, ensuring our clients have early access to the best thinking and tools in the industry.
Human-Centered Service
We take the time to understand each client’s story — their family, their goals, their priorities. Whether it’s designing a multi-generational trust strategy, helping a retiring executive reduce concentration risk, or guiding an advisor through the sale of their practice, we make the complex feel personal and actionable.
