The development came to light through a joint statement issued by Evan Feldman, the attorney representing the employee of Kelly Fleet, Inc., and Julius Collins, representing Tyreek Hill.
The incident in question occurred on June 18 at Haulover Marina, involving the NFL player, ClutchPoints noted.
As a result of this resolution, the 29-year-old wide receiver will proceed to the start of training camp on Tuesday without facing any further repercussions for the incident, which the police allege occurred on Father's Day.
The reported altercation occurred when Hill and his friends allegedly boarded a private boat without permission, leading to a confrontation with the boat's captain.
During the argument, a marina worker intervened and was reportedly struck by Hill, who is a four-time All-Pro.
Authorities claim to possess surveillance footage that supports the accusation against Hill.
Meanwhile, it was reported last month that Hill allegedly offered the worker $200 to resolve the incident privately.
With the legal conflict resolved, there may be varied interpretations of the phrase "resolved differences" among observers.

Tyreek Hill and Miami Dolphins
The Miami Dolphins released a statement through a spokesperson, acknowledging the reported incident involving Tyreek Hill, according to ESPN.
The star wide receiver, a seven-time Pro Bowl selection and a four-time first-team All-Pro, is heading into his second season with the Dolphins.
Before joining the Miami Dolphins, Hill spent the first six years with the Kansas City Chiefs.
During the previous season, Hill achieved a career-high of 1,710 receiving yards and scored seven touchdowns.
This impressive performance came after a significant trade with the Chiefs, resulting in Hill securing a lucrative four-year contract worth $120 million.
Notably, the Dolphins concluded the last season with a 9-8 record, and their playoff appearance marked the team's return to the postseason for the first time since 2016.
As the Dolphins' training camp approaches, veteran players are scheduled to report on Tuesday, where Hill will be among the players preparing for the upcoming season.
Tyreek Hill's Legal Troubles
Tyreek Hill has been involved in several notable off-field issues in the past. In 2014, he faced dismissal from Oklahoma State University following a domestic violence arrest, per Yahoo! Sports.
Subsequently, Hill pleaded guilty to physically assaulting his then 20-year-old pregnant girlfriend, involving punching and choking.
During his time with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2019, Hill was suspended from team activities after a conversation was released in which he made alarming statements to his fiancée, implying that she and their child should fear him.
His fiancée also alleged that their child disclosed experiencing physical abuse, with the child reportedly stating, "Daddy punches me."
Hill did not face criminal charges or disciplinary action from the league in that specific incident.
