Is a written agreement required for an uncontested divorce?

After 3 years of marriage my wife and I want to divorce. We’ve agreed on all issues, including custody of our daughter, and we are not fighting over anything. We’d like to file for uncontested divorce in Washington, D.C. and get the divorce as soon as possible and without spending alot on legal fees. The clerk at the courthouse told us we needed to file a written agreement stating what we’ve agreed to and what the custody schedule will be for our daughter. Do we have to have a written agreement if we both know what we’ve agreed to and don’t think we need one? Can we get the uncontested divorce without it? If we do need something in writing, can we do it ourselves or do we need a lawyer? We are both Iranian and would prefer an Iranian lawyer if one is necessary.
