What is the name of your state? AZ

The driveway I have been using to access my home/property goes through the neighbor's property. I have been using this driveway for 1 year. I have owned this property for 2 years. The prior owner of my home had used this same driveway - since 1999. We do not have any recorded paperwork with the county as to matter because the husband refuses to sign anything. At the time of the closing, my title company had received a fax agreement from the wife allowing me access/permission to use the driveway. The title company stated that this was binding.
The problem is the neighbor's property is being sold and going into escrow shortly. Now they want me to sign a Quiet Title/ Quit Claim Deed. If I don't, their attorney is threating to sue me and pay their legal fees.
My question : If I stop using the existing driveway (having a new one put it), can they still take me to court and win and pay their fees? I do not want to be forced to sign anything. Thank you.
