A telephone call can form a binding contract, the email merely gives provides evidence for your claim.A court may not award the full amount, so I would invoice the full amount and send a 'Without Prejudice' letter offering to accept a lesser amount if paid within (say) 15 days, otherwise you will issue a county court summons.Under English Law, there are only four types of contract that have to be in writing:Sale of Land; Sale of Shares; Transfer of an interest in a ship; I have forgotten the other one.
