Is there ever a scenario where you would put both a pair of commas and a pair of parenthesis around a parenthetical? I.e. in this form word words words,(words words words), words words words.
?
For example:
Based my client's financial situation, (see attached proof of funds), my client can proceed to closing without any delay.

If you removed the first comma it would be normal.

The commas and the parentheses serve different purposes here and have little to do with each other. They may both be needed in certain contexts as this.
