I have to respond to these questions but im not sure what I am doing wrong, if anything.

¿Conoces a alguien que sea abogado de inmigración? No, no conozca a alguien que sea abogado de inmigración

¿Conoces alguien en la oficina que haga envíos a otros países? No, no conozca alguien en la oficina que haga envíos a otros países.

Thanks for any help!

In the first one, the answer is "No, no conozco a nadie que sea.. Second one: No, no conozco a nadie [...] que haga [...]

I believe you'd use the indicative for conocer since you definitely don't know someone who fits either of those categories.

But I believe that ser and hacer will be in the subjunctive like you have them. I'm pretty sure that's because from your point of view, that kind of person "doesn't exist."

I could be wrong, though!
