I think so. 'Petition' as a verb means to make a formal request to an authority such as a court of law or government That looks good to me Dave

The Client (lower case) petitions (usually an indirect object is here) to hold the meeting without his attendance (him) as he permanently lives (permanently is better positioned after the verb) in USA.
