Salvaging info off removed HHD

Is it possible to hook a laptop HHD to some type of external case for the purpose of removing files. A parts changer repair shop changed out the HHD in my laptop with some very inportant work files still on the old one. I need to find a way to retrieve them as painless as possible.
