Wow. Alot going on. IN my gut, I think the best you get is a temp restraining order. I just don't think they are going to make any permanent changes until she can defend herself.
Long term? They are not going to terminate her parental rights. I think they may give supervised visitation until she proves that she is under control. Even if she did hurt the kids, if she is in treatment, they are going to work to get her back with them when it is safe.
As for alimony - I think that her being made ward of the state came after your divorce and they cannot hit you up for marital payments. Just my thought.
On the fees, if this is not a pro-bono lawyer, then they took the case with an expectation of being paid somehow. I don't think the court would allow it because you are not bringing frivolous motions. But - I've seen crazier.
