Time limit to set aside an executed general release

My attorney failed to provide proper advise and pushed me to execute the general release. As a reslut, I lost the right to claim unpaid severance. Now, my attorney deny any wrong doing and claim I could file a reuest to set aside the executed release in Sep. 2005 (almost 2 years ago). Can I still file the request to set aside the executed release after 2 years? Your help is greatly appreciated.
