Google+ Pages and an unknown owner...how do I claim it or get it removed?

[allstatetransmission]

Hello, I am working on a clients social networking campaign and have found a Google+ page for their company. It looks like it was created approx a year ago. The client doesn't know who created it or what account has control of it in their network.

I need to make a Google+ page for them so I can use it in their marketing that I can actually access. I was wondering if anyone has any insight on how I can either:

Find the owner/email that is associated with the Google+ Page?

or

Have it removed so I can create a fresh one?

which I know I can report the page as compromised but will that work in a timely manner?

Please any thoughts or feedback would be greatly appreciated, and thanks!!

I reported our Company's old account, which was controlled by a former owner, and put up a new one. The old one was deleted within a week of the request. I tried to claim it to no avail for a couple weeks before creating the new one.

Hope that helps!
