Meet the team
Adam Green
Mortgage and Protection Adviser
Adam brings a wealth of knowledge, insight, and calm reassurance to every client he helps. With nearly 25 years of experience in mortgage and protection advice he has helped thousands of clients in all types of situations like first time buyers, refinancing and BTL. Not only that, but he has mentored many new and seasoned advisers to hit their next goal and achieve their ambitions.
Based in Worcester with his wife and two exceptionally needy cats, he also has two grown-up children, despite clearly not looking old enough.
When he’s not guiding clients through their home-buying journey or navigating the ever-evolving mortgage market, you’ll find Adam enjoying great local food, gym sessions, holidays, and catching up with friends.
Adam co-founded Alegra Mortgage and Protection to create a supportive community of like-minded advisers who deliver solid, high-quality advice in an increasingly complex market. His mission? To blend the best of technology with personal, client-first service. As he puts it, “Even after all this time, nothing beats the feeling of helping someone save money or move into their new home.”
Lee Evans
Mortgage and Protection Adviser
With over 5 years of award-winning experience in mortgage and protection advice, Lee has built a reputation for clear, honest guidance and unwavering client support. Based in Gloucester, he lives with his partner and balances a busy work life with raising two young children and still finds time for the gym and his lifelong passion for drumming.
Lee co-founded Alegra Mortgage and Protection with a simple mission: to bring clarity, care, and consistency to people navigating life’s biggest financial decisions. His vision is to build a family-orientated network of advisers across the UK with professionals who not only understand the complexities of the market, but who genuinely care about the people they help. With a sharp focus on technology, he’s constantly looking at ways to streamline the adviser’s role and deliver better results for clients.
Whether you’re buying your first home or reviewing your protection needs, Lee’s approach is always the same: friendly, focused, and built around you.
Garry Hughes
Mortgage and Protection Adviser
Garry brings a global perspective to his role, having been born in Rhodesia and lived across Zimbabwe, South Africa, Israel, Greece, and now the UK. A natural explorer, he has travelled to over 35 countries and is driven by new experiences, cultures, and of course, discovering great food both at home and abroad. Since becoming an adviser during Covid, Garry has developed a real passion for helping clients secure their homes, particularly where others may see challenges, whether that’s adverse credit, visa status, or low deposits. He is committed to guiding clients every step of the way, from the first conversation through to the moment they receive their keys.
"I love the challenge of finding a way to make things work - no matter the situation, I’m there from the first meeting right through to the keys in hand."
James Cooper
Mortgage and Protection Adviser
James brings both experience and personality to his role as a Mortgage and Protection Adviser, supporting a wide range of clients from first-time buyers and shared ownership applicants to more complex cases including self-employed clients, adverse credit, and Buy-to-Let. He is known for making the complicated feel simple, the stressful feel manageable, and the process far less intimidating than many expect. Outside of work, James has a strong sense of adventure, having spent time in New Zealand exploring Lord of the Rings filming locations, alongside experiences like scuba diving, skiing, bungee jumping, and skydiving - all things that should get your adrenaline going, unlike your mortgage journey.
"One does not simply walk into a mortgage appointment… but I’ll make sure you feel at home when you do."
Esther Froggatt
Mortgage and Protection Adviser
With over 25 years of experience in the mortgage industry, she has built extensive knowledge helping clients navigate everything from straightforward applications to more complex cases. She prides herself on delivering a professional yet personal service, building long-lasting relationships with clients who return time and again for trusted advice and support. Her approach is centred around understanding each client’s individual needs and making the mortgage process feel as smooth, clear, and stress-free as possible. Outside of work, she enjoys spending time outdoors and going on long walks with her family and two dogs.
"I believe the best mortgage advice comes from really understanding people and being there for them every step of the way."
Jee Patel
Mortgage and Protection Adviser
Jee brings over 27 years of experience in the financial services industry, having started his career as a cashier in a major high street bank before progressing into management and later specialising in mortgages. His extensive background spans both mortgage underwriting and providing tailored mortgage advice, giving him a well-rounded understanding of the industry and the challenges clients can face. Known for his calm and professional approach, Jee is committed to helping clients navigate the mortgage process with clarity and confidence. Outside of work, he enjoys long forest walks and is a passionate football fan — although these days he admits he’s more armchair supporter than player.
'The best time to buy a home is always five years ago. The second-best time is now'
Joanne Finnegan
Senior Administrator
Joanne brings a wealth of experience to Alegra, having built a long and varied career in Financial Services, starting as a building society cashier and later becoming an Independent Financial Adviser. Her knowledge and steady approach make her a valuable support to both clients and colleagues alike. Outside of work, Joanne enjoys travelling with her grown-up children, exploring the Derbyshire countryside with her dog (often accompanied by her reluctant husband), and pursuing her passion for scuba diving - spending as much time as possible underwater or planning her next adventure.
"If I’m not helping clients or the team, you’ll usually find me exploring somewhere new, preferably underwater."
