You should investigate and obtain background information from the owner and research exactly what the specific deal is so that a contract with specific terms and conditions can be drafted.   Again, determine what expectations and understandings are between the parties.

I would recommend not getting a tax attorney and accountant before making a purchase - it may not be worth such a small investment.  I would suggest buying a simple website for less than $200 and feeling it out.  Depending on how the experience is, you may want to invest in another website.
