Hartmann was born on 6 May 1544, the son of Georg Hartmann, Herr von Liechtenstein-Feldsberg, and Susanna von Liechtenstein. His father died in 1562, and in 1563 he was invested, at the age of only 19, with Liechtenstein properties in Austria. On 28 October 1568 he married Anna Maria, Gräfin von Ortenburg, daughter of Karl I, Graf von Ortenburg, and Maximiliana von Fraunberg zum Haag. Anna Maria was also the first cousin of Joachim von Ortenburg, since 1551 the ruling court of Ortenburg, and the powerful leader of the Lutheran nobility in the dukedom of Bavaria, who introduced the Reformation into his county in 1563, which put him into severe conflict with Albrecht V, duke of Bavaria. At the wedding feast in Ortenburg the guests included the Austrian noblemen Bernhard, Graf zu Hardegg, Dietmar VI von Losenstein, Gundakar XI von Starhemberg, Sigismund von Polheim and Sebastian von Liechtenstein, a brother of the bridegroom. The marriage produced five sons, of whom two died in childhood, and four daughters, of whom two reached adulthood.

From June 1571 to the end of 1573 Hartmann was a counsellor to the Lower Austrian government, and in 1573 he was an imperial commissioner, arbitrating in border conflicts between Austria and Moravia over the town of Laa an der Thaya. He was an adviser to emperors Maximilian II and Rudolf II, and a significant provider of credit to the emperor and the reigning princes. In 1577 he granted a loan of 50,000 Gulden to Rudolf II at an interest rate of six percent. In 1578 he refused a position as privy councillor. He served as a member of numerous royal commissions. For example in 1582 he was a member of the commission charged with reform of the operation of the Silesian court.

In 1575 he succeeded in reacquiring the estate of Eisgrub that had been sold in 1572/3 by Wolfgang III von Liechtenstein of the Nikolsburg line, thereby laying the foundation for the extraordinary expansion of the Liechtenstein estates in Moravia in the next generation. Consistent with the High Middle Ages tradition of the house of Liechtenstein he focused on the family estates in Moravia and in Austria below the Enns, and in consequence he sold the significant estate of Steyregg in Austria above the Enns that had been in the family since the first decade of the 15th century.

Also in 1575, on behalf of the nobility in the area north of the Manhartsberg he took an active part in the placement of preachers on their estates, who had been sent by the evangelical assemblies of Lower Austria.

Hartmann died in Eisgrub on 5 October 1585, and in accordance with his will he was buried in the parish church of Feldsberg. At his death his sons Karl, Maximilian and Gundakar were only 16, seven and five, and his daughters Katharina and Judith 13 and 10.

Hartmann died a committed Lutheran, and in his will he urged his sons to be the same. He further ordered that his sons, whom he named as his only heirs, should learn both Latin and Czech. He was particularly concerned that they learn Czech as this was essential for participation in the sittings of the Moravian assemblies. They were also to be raised in the knightly arts, including skill at arms, riding, etc. In particular, they were to do nothing that would bring shame on his family, but rather to lead faithful Christian lives devoted to good works. Anna Maria retired to Wilfersdorf as her widow's seat. She died on 16 December 1601. Unlike her sons who all converted to Catholicism, she and her daughters remained true to their Evangelical faith.
