Digital Answering Machine - Recover Erased Message?

[John]

When changing the battery on an old panasonic digital answering machine,the messages got erased (even though the machine said they would be preserved if the plug remained in).Is it possible for a data retrieval shop to unerase the messages?Thanks. John

Unless you have a important message from the president, about national
security saved on it, the $7000.00 it would cost for a pro forensic
technician to recover the data probably wouldn't be worth it.
So say goodbye to the 43 messages from your mom asking you if you are
wearing clean underwear today.

Action Front Data Recovery Labs.... They are the source for retrieving data of any type,
from any media.

They can retreive data from hard drives to memory cards to ............

It is expensive though.
