Do I find the inspection company or does my lawyer? (I'm not using a buying agent, but am dealing directly with listing agent.) Thanks.

You can always request an appraisal contingency even if paying cash, but it will diminish the leverage that cash gives you in negotiations. Recommended if there is any question of market value.
Same for inspection - you can ask for it, and highly recommended. Banks don't require home inspections even if a loan was involved. Banks will require an appraisal, which is not an inspection.
You find the inspection company.
These questions are why you should be using a buyer agent.
