I just wanted out of the marriage as quickly as possible, so I did not fight him over anything. Now looking back I was basically taken advantage of. I ended up with the vehicle that was unpaid for while he got the two that were. We also had stocks purchased while we were married and he ended up with those as well. I just didn't think things through very well.

Sounds like you didn't think things through the first time. But in my opinion, it's totally wrong to do that! If you just wanted out as quickly as possible then you got what you want. Leave the man alone! How long were you guys married? His retirement should be just that, his retirement. Under the law, you are entitled to half of it, but it's wrong, wrong, dirty and wrong to do that to him. Forget it and move on with your life. Start your own retirement.

First unless you signed something stating he got all his retirement you have a right to part of it.
If you were married to him for 10 years or more you will get credit for his work and will be able to collect more in social security.
If you signed away stuff that said you gets this and that and then told the court you agreed to it you are screwed.

Most of this depends on the length of your marriage.
Also it might prove very tough because you agreed with the terms of the divorce. Hindsight is 20/20. If you can 'prove' coercion, theft or fraud, you will most likely have a case that will stand up in court. Other than that, I seriously have my doubts.

Usually once it's over it's over... you can't go back and fight for anything because basically you agreed to give up whatever you gave up. Every states rules are different, but I wouldn't be surprised if you just have to cut your loses and move on. Sorry.

Do you want to do this because you need the money or because of revenge? Forget the past and live for today. Tomorrow may never come. Sometimes it's best to leave well enough alone.

Get a good attorney and ask for a reopening of your divorce in light of new information that has come to light.

You have to go by the first ruling, unless you can prove you were not given the right advice or information!
