If so, just take it to them. Let one of their "geniuses" plug in a cable and see what he can get. They do this kind of thing all the time for transferring data between phones, so it shouldn't be a problem. If the texts are well and truly deleted, well, you probably won't get them back. If it's just some weird software glitch, though (and it sounds like it might be, since you said you can still find them by searching) then the Apple guys might be able to get them back for ya.
In the future, keep in mind that phones aren't phones anymore, they're computers. They contain important data and should be secured and backed up every bit as carefully as work computers. More carefully in some cases, as they tend to contain highly personal stuff. I know this advice doesn't do you any good at the moment, but consider it your friendly tech admonishment for the day. Good luck getting your texts back!

I haven't used any and I don't know what the client used, but a quick Google search should work.
