SxS card recovery

Hi,

I'm a professional DOP shooting a documentary in the UK. I'm shooting XAVC HD on a Sony F55 to SxS plus cards. I've accidentally formatted a card with vital rushes on in-camera. If I was to send the card to you, is this something that you can restore? The feedback from online blogs seems to mixed - some saying that SxS cards formatted in camera means rushes are not retrievable (that it is a secure format) whilst others say they can be restored. These rushes are vitally important and money no object to have them retrieved.

Any help you can advise would be much appreciated.
