The ranking was published on 15 June 2026. The Future Leaders category identifies the practitioners recognised as the rising names in construction dispute resolution.

What is the Lexology Index: Construction?
The Lexology Index, formerly Who’s Who Legal, is an international legal directory. It has researched the legal market for almost thirty years. The Construction ranking lists the lawyers and experts recognised for handling complex, multi-jurisdictional construction disputes through litigation, mediation and arbitration.
The methodology draws on three sources. It combines peer review, feedback from clients and in-house counsel, and quantitative analysis used to corroborate that feedback. The Index ranks practitioners only, not firms.
The Future Leaders – Partners category
The Future Leaders category is reserved for practitioners aged 45 and under. It highlights the lawyers set to become leading names of the next generation. Within the Construction ranking, it distinguishes partners, associates and experts separately. Anne-Sophie Tonin is recognised as a partner, within the Future Leaders – Partners subcategory.

It also encompasses alternative dispute resolution, in particular mediation and conciliation. Anne-Sophie Tonin works in French, English and Spanish, which allows her to support projects and disputes with an international dimension.
