Anybody performed an eviction in Durham NC county?

Ok, tenant is late, 10 day notice period has passed and tenant went into hiding. It seems I might have to file for eviction. I would love to file and have the court papers handed to the tenant creating a wake up moment and then receive payment. Reality probably looks different. Does anybody have experiences with the specificity in Durham county and/or knows a good lawyer? I have witnessed a hand full of eviction hearings and was surprised how little drama was going on. The landlords were represented by lawyers and the cases seemed to have been straightforward. It was all for non payment of rent.
