I've been trying to resolve this in North Carolina on my own but I'm stuck.

DOGE layoff with inadequate severance. I've been dealing with this for about 6 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have worked at this company for 12 years. My position is non-exempt and I do not have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.

Should I hire a lawyer for this or try to handle it myself?

Following this thread — +1, same situation. Hoping for good news.

Just consulted with an attorney about my case. The initial consultation was free and they took it on contingency (no upfront cost, they take a percentage of the recovery). If your case has strong merits, many attorneys will work on contingency.
