He is expected to help grow the network's protection proposition
Mortgage and protection network HLPartnership (HLP) has appointed Ian Pratt as its second in-house protection development specialist to help grow the network’s protection proposition.
Pratt will reunite with his former colleague at Legal & General, Steve Fallon, who joined HLP last year to develop the network’s protection support for its members. They are tasked with helping member firms through training and ongoing support to develop protection business alongside their primary mortgage proposition to clients.

Pratt received his protection grounding at AMP Pearl before joining Legal & General, where he was involved in recruitment, sales, and skills management. In the past six years, he was a strategic manager, responsible for running teams, training, and supporting ARs in many of the UK’s top networks.
“Protection is a fundamental part of the advice process,” Shaun Almond, managing director at HLPartnership, stressed. “HLP is committed to ensuring that our members, while helping clients with their mortgage needs, have the confidence and support to maximise the opportunities to bring the protection narrative to every customer.
“We are delighted to welcome Ian, who will, alongside Steve Fallon, play an important role in further inspiring our members to fully embrace the protection proposition.”
