You're doing an amazing job in keeping your spirits up in these difficult times - you have incredible strength and that is going to put you in a good place for all the years ahead.
Just a couple of other bits of advice that may or may not be useful in the battle ahead:
1) Don't get too caught up with the prospect of legal aid, most people melt after getting a solictor's letter - same as most people balk when a debt collection agency send anything. Any solictor will write a letter in legalspeak for you to whoever you want for a set fee and 9/10 people will back down at that stage. If they are the 1/10 people who are in it for the fight then to be honest it doesn't matter how much legal aid you get for the whole process - it's going to be long and messy and nobody wins.

2) If I was you, then the next time you do see your daughter you have an emergency contact kit (call it a secret spy kit or something) just in case any other stunts are pulled. Whether it be you and her setting up a gmail account she can access, or you putting some of your windfall to a cheap PAYG phone that she could store at a friend's house or something - just something so that she knows you are serious about keeping contact with her - and that you can use if you have to - it will just give her the psychological reassurance that you are there for her. I'm sure you wouldn't fall into the trap (but many do) of saying anything derogatory about her mother to her - it won't do her any good and could get used against you.

Good luck mate - we are all backing you 100%.
