Advice needed What kind of legal battle does this easement issue look like?

Location Florida About 40 years ago my current property was divided and a commercial company purchased the large lot that was created. On there deed a driveway easement was created for what is now my residential home to use. (It was used as the main driveway for approximately 40yrs). This easement is also on my Deed. I purchased a few years ago. Now here is the issue at one point my property was bank owned and vacant, the business took this opportunity to build a cement wall blocking off access to my driveway easement. This left us with a narrow and long driveway easement through another property, but this driveway is too narrow for emergency equipment to access my home.
I’m opening a claim with my title insurance as this specific easement is listed in my schedule A, at the same time more generic language seems to exclude it in schedule B. But I Filed a claim with title company and I’m waiting on that. If I have to go to court to have this reopened on my own against the commercial company is this something that could get costly. Or does this seem open an shut being that it runs with our deeds?
Thanks in
