you should use deja-dup to avoid such issue.

Besides those mentioned on dino99's post, you could also try Scalpel.

sudo apt-get install scalpel

After installing it you just have to change it's configuration in scalpel.conf:

gksudo geany /etc/scalpel/scalpel.conf

Remove the # sign from the beginning of the lines which contain the file types you want to recover.
After that please run the Scalpel:

sudo scalpel /dev/sdb1 -o /home/Recovered_Files/

dev/sdb1 is the location of the device from where the files were deleted.
/home/Recovered_Files/ is the place to accommodate the files that will be recovered from /dev/sdb1
