Are you sure the link in your question is correct – The one without Fax is https://www.avocats-lille.com//fr/annuaire/avocats-du-tableau-au-barreau-de-lille/2?view=entry

You never return or print your variable fax – So try to fix this and you will get your result if Fax is available

for link in productlinks:
    driver.get(link)
    soup = BeautifulSoup(driver.page_source, "html.parser")
    try:
        Fax=t.group(1) if (t:=re.search('Fax ([ds]*)', soup.select_one('.address+ .contact p').text)) else None
    except:
        Fax=''
    print(Fax,link)

Output:

None https://www.avocats-lille.com//fr/annuaire/avocats-du-tableau-au-barreau-de-lille/2?view=entry

Just in addition, it do not need the try except block, cause the if statement still handles behavior in case there is no fax:

for link in productlinks:
    driver.get(link)
    soup = BeautifulSoup(driver.page_source, "html.parser")
    Fax=t.group(1) if (t:=re.search('Fax ([ds]*)', soup.select_one('.address+ .contact p').text)) else ''
    
    print(Fax)

Output:
