At age 58, Marianne slipped and fell at home and could no longer work at her floor sales job of 20 years at a high end boutique at the mall. A debilitating hip and knee injury kept her from standing for long periods of time. Her best friend Julia suggested that she apply for disability benefits since standing, and even walking for that matter was a problem. Marianne heard that Social Security applies earnings tests to determine whether or not someone is eligible to receive Social Security disability benefits.  Julia suggested that Marianne call our firm, Cervoni Disability Law, PLLC to speak to a disability attorney to find out if she meets the criteria.
