Tenants won't pay rent, evicting

I'm in a bad situation here. Tenants won't pay rent. My property manager already turned their account to the attorneys for eviction. I think the tenants are currently looking for another place to live... Eviction could take a while. Any cheaper and less time consuming ways to get the tenants out? Thank you all. (These tenants are not easy to deal with and will not do anything according to the rules...)

You could offer cash for keys as it is sometimes easier and cheaper than evicting: 

"You're going to be out of this apartment one way or the other. If you and all your stuff are out by the end of the weekend I'll give you $500 cash. That deal is off the table Monday morning and you'll be evicted and out with no cash...your choice"

Regardless, don't take your foot off the gas of the eviction process until they are out one way or the other.
