An email IS having "something in writing."
It will stand up in court, that is. It is perfectly valid, even though no signatures are involved. I once threatened to take a client who was not going to pay me to court based simply on his emails. (One of the instances where I seriously regretted not having some kind of small contract or signed estimate up front.) Anyway, it worked, he paid me. Good luck!
