An easement and a servitude are exactly the same thing. Easement is a common law term and servitude is a civil law (Louisiana) term. A right of way is essentially the same thing as well, but a right of way is a personal right (e.g, belongs to you, personally), whereas a servitude is a right that travels with the land, so any buyer of the land also has the right.
