That doesn't sound right. Why would you sign a death certificate unless you are a doctor? You may have signed something that said you agree to be the executor of your brother's estate. In that case, you may be responsible for liquidating your brother's assets to pay his outstanding debts. But that would not require you to settle his debts from your own funds. You need some clarification from the lawyer, perhaps even a second opinion from another lawyer. Unless you were business partners, it does not make sense that you would agree to pay your dead brother's debts.
