My bf has his daughter at the moment. When was taken from her mother from a social worker in MS we live in Tennessee we were told that we needed to get temporary custody of her or she would end up in state custody but we are struggling financially so we need to find a cheap lawyer that will take the case and grant temp custody so we don't loose his daughter.

You can apply to Legal Aid. If you don't qualify, you can look for a lawyer with flexible payment options, but I don't think a "cheap" option exists, and sometimes you get what you pay for. Your bf should have placement priority w DCS if the state does take her, but there is a whole process for interstate placement. It sounds like you need a lawyer in MS.
