Generally, quitclaim means the grantor relinquishes rights/ownership of property/easement to grantee. The specifics of the quitclaim depends on the exact language contained in the deed. For example, if the deed notes that “Grantor quitclaims existing easement for access/utility rights, located on Parcel/APN ‘XYZ,’ whereas said parcel is owned by Grantee,” that means the Grantor is giving up their rights/authority for access/utility purposes on that parcel, or at least the portion of the parcel encumbered by the easement (assuming there are multiple different easements).
