What I do, is the following:

When I have imported a file from MSOffice and get problems like you are 
describing, I copy (Ctrl-C) the problematic paragraph, delete the 
problematic paragraph, make a new one with the desired paragraph style 
en paste the text with Ctrl-Shif-Alt-V. This way of pasting deletes all 
formatting from the text and accepts the style of the chosen paragraph. 
Later I delete al superfluous Windows styles that encumber the document.

I hope this helps; good luck.

Erik
