You may not be able to do so. It is important to not write anything back onto the drive.

There are a number of data retrieval apps that depend on what OS you're using.

The process is that you make a copy (if possible) of the data onto a good working backup volume and then retrieve data from there.

As a Mac user I have had good results from DataRescue3, and also from Cardwiper an app. that has a retrieval function.
