I think that misconstrues the general nature of representing a defendant in a criminal investigation or lawsuit. I don't, for example, consider it my job to monitor what my clients do on a day to day basis and if they do something wrong that's on them, not me. That said, it's possible the lawyer at the request of the client could be more involved on an operational basis, I just don't know. And if the lawyer makes an affirmative statement suggesting the client is now clean, of course you should hold him to it.
