The listed software are very good choices and it is highly possible to help you retrieve the deletes files!
I was in a similar situation a few months ago after accidentally deleting files from my Mac. Since they were no longer in the Trash and I didn't have a Time Machine backup, I tried a few recovery options.
The one that worked well for me was EdbMails Data Recovery Software. One thing I liked is that it connects to the Mac via SSH, so you can scan the internal drive and recover deleted data without having to remove the disk or use complicated workarounds. The interface was straightforward, and I was able to preview the recoverable files before restoring them.
Regardless of the software you choose, my advice is to stop using the Mac as much as possible until you've attempted recovery. Continued use can overwrite the deleted data and reduce the chances of successful recovery.
If the files are important, I'd recommend trying a scan first to see what can be recovered before making any changes to the drive.
