There is an exception when both parties waive any conflict in writing. However, that is not favored. Rather, you should assume the lawyer represents your husband and act accordingly. If you are unsure what documents you have received require you to do, if anything, you should consult an attorney.
I assumed you were referring to a divorce complaint, but there is no time frame for a response to a divorce complaint, as no response is required at all. I would be happy to review the documents you received and advise you on a free initial basis. Feel free to call or e-mail on a free initial basis.
