As long as they are representing someone I think lawyers have the same obligations regardless of who actually pays them or if they are receiving any payment at all.

Yes, this is true, but that requires there to not be any conflict of interest, which is really not all that clear-cut in situations like these.

And a lawyer would make that decision and immediately decline to give advice once they find a conflict of interest between joint clients.
