You can easily edit Zotero's style file to make it insert the required
parentheses. 
To edit Zotero's style file: 
- use a text editor which can handle UTF-8 files
- do not overwrite the original style file but save the changed file
with a different name and also change the style name in the header part.

You can contact me for further questions by PM.
