Trash Recovery: Recover Deleted Files from Emptied Trash

About less than a month ago I deleted a folder and emptied the trash thinking I don't need it, but today I noticed I do. Is it possible to recover this file? I knew the exact name and directory of the folder. Is there even a program that can recover this folder even though the trash was emptied such a long time ago? Thanks!

From a professional standpoint, when we emptied Trash Bin, actually we didn’t delete the files stored there. We just lose the access to the files from the system. The space occupied by deleted files is marked as “available to rescue”, as long as they are not overwritten by other files, those deleted files still remain on the drive. In order not to be overwritten, we need to stop using the Mac immediately if we want to recover deleted data from Trash Bin.
Data Recovery, here we humbly recommend it to you, is an easy to use data recovery for Mac. Compatible with Mac OS X Mavericks, Data Recovery for Mac empowers you to recover formatted, deleted and inaccessible images, archives, documents, songs, videos, etc. from Mac Book, iPod and Mac desktop, USB drives, digital camera, mobile phones and other storage media. You can recover the data stored in Trash Bin with some clicks in the friendly interface.

Notes: Before "Empty Trash", please check the Trash Bin carefully. If you find something valuable, you can highlight the ones that got mistakenly sent there and drag them out of Trash Bin to avoid this data loss headache.
